Dirty Little Secrets 2025:
Part 1

Don’t Balk at the Bakken

Crude Oil | NGL | Capital Intelligence | Natural Gas

November 6th | 10 AM MST – REGISTER TODAY!

Commodity Markets Wrong, Equity Markets Right, Opportunity is Everywhere - Here is Why You Should Pay Attention!

In Part 1 of this exclusive series, we will explore the Bakken as an example of how to view the entire U.S. energy value chain. The commodity market may be out of step, but equity markets are on target. Relying on just one could be a costly mistake. If you can anticipate what’s unfolding in the Bakken, you'll be positioned to profit across the U.S. energy sector. 

Key Takeaways: 

  • Winners and losers will emerge depending on the shifts in natural gas, crude, and NGLs 
  • The Bakken as a use case to understand the entire U.S. energy value chain 
  • Identifying profitable opportunities across the full energy value chain 
  • Insights into upstream and downstream production strategies 
  • Infrastructure developments and their impact on commodity flows 
  • How to position yourself to capitalize on energy shifts across all commodities

Commodity Markets Right....Equity Markets Wrong - Here is Why You Should Pay Attention! 

In Part 2 of our exclusive series, we dive into the Gulf Coast—where upstream production and downstream infrastructure converge, creating a volatile and opportunity-rich environment. With daily production shifts in crude, natural gas, and NGLs, understanding how these commodities interact is key to uncovering hidden profit potential. 

Key Takeaways: 

  • The Gulf Coast as the epicenter of U.S. energy dynamics 
  • How to spot lucrative opportunities across crude, nat gas, and NGLs 
  • Insights into upstream and downstream strategies specific to the region 
  • The critical role of infrastructure in driving commodity flows

East Daley's Methodology

At East Daley Analytics, our methodology revolves around integrating disparate data points to deliver accurate insights into energy production and infrastructure across the U.S. We integrate weekly rig data, monthly production figures, and quarterly financials to provide a comprehensive view of energy production and infrastructure in the U.S.—from wellhead to demand centers.

 

Check-circled-gold

Unique Rig and Well Assignments

Since 2015, we’ve been assigning wells and rigs to gas gathering and processing systems on a weekly basis. This extensive historical data provides a foundational data point for our production forecasts, ensuring precision in tracking production trends.

Check-circled-gold

Granular Production Models

We analyze rig counts, well allocations, and forecasted production by basin, starting at a regional level (e.g., Permian Basin) and drilling down to individual systems. By tying rig activity to commodity output (Crude, Natural Gas, NGLs), we create detailed production curves aligned with market forward curves.

Check-circled-gold

System-Level Forecasting

For each G&P system, we integrate plant inlet and flow data, capacity announcements, and historical trends. This allows us to forecast individual system performance accurately. Our ability to tag state and county-level data to these systems sets us apart, providing a granular understanding of system-level dynamics.

Check-circled-gold

Comprehensive Pipeline and Plant Data

We map the flow corridors of pipelines, connect them to price dynamics, and analyze constraints to forecast future production and system volumes. Our models account for capacity limits, contract roll-offs, and transportation bottlenecks.

Check-circled-gold

Asset-Level Financial Integration

We model companies down to an asset level, incorporating quarterly financial data to refine our volume forecasts. By comparing financial reports with operational data, we continuously calibrate our models to ensure our volume metrics are both accurate and forward-looking.
