About Energy Documents
Energy Documents is an essential library of source well file, pressure documents, and fracture information that you access from the S&P Global Energy Portal or while using AccuMap. Launch Energy Documents from AccuMap by inspecting a well and selecting Energy Documents from the context menu, by clicking Energy Documents from the main ribbon of the DataCard with for either a single well or multiple wells, or by clicking Open in Energy Documents from the Lists / Selections tab in the main map.
Energy Documents gives quick access to current and historical well documents sourced directly from government regulatory agencies and updated daily. Filter by document content using enhanced optical character recognition (OCR) searches. At any stage of a project, access well files and pressure test information to help discover opportunities and verify information.
Previously, our website search interface was divided into specific search fields by license, UWI, and area. Now, our website displays a single search box where you type a search term, partial term, or multiple terms, and then click (
), or press Enter.
The search box let's you search any data field in a source well file, pressure document, or facility with whatever degree of specificity you like. Your search can range from a low to high degree of resolution.
For example,
10-19W4 (a partial UWI in the DLS system),
to
All:montney completion Alberta -pas -pressure -general (wells with completions in the Montney formation in Alberta that do not include PAS, pressure, or general data).
Results are displayed on a flexible data results grid, that can be sorted, grouped, filtered, and customized. The Energy Documents grid displays lat/long using the WGS84 system for surface and bottom hole locations.

Over time submissions to regulatory agencies have migrated from paper to electronic. Electronic submission enabled S&P Global to categorize submitted documents into more granular sub document types. For example, previously pressure tests were combined into a single PDF as Test data > PRES-G. Now we categorize them into more granular sub document types like AOF, GAN and so on.
If you do not find the specific content you're looking for, search for all documents under the doc type instead of using the sub doc type.

Subscription options colored green in the menu above indicate that you have entitlements and at least one vacant seat for that module. Subscription options colored grey in the menu above indicate that either no seats are available, or that you are not entitled to the data. If you do not have sufficient seats, try again later when a seat is freed up, purchase an additional seat license, or buy the specific data item(s) from the S&P Global Data Management Services desk.

Pressure ASCII Standard (PAS) files are an Alberta-lead initiative started in 1999 to create standardized pressure test submissions using ASCII format files. This format is also used in BC.
The PAS schema defines fields for gas analysis, oil analysis, water analysis, production test data, gradient test data, and absolute open flow/transient test data.
The popular Log ASCII Standard (LAS) file format is based on the PAS initiative.
The regulator defines numerous fields that are categorized within a PAS file. For a list of these fields, refer to http://aer.ca/documents/dds/PASFileFormats.xls
Each test may have several files:
- A PAS file, which is the original format, and that can be viewed using an ASCII text editor such as Notepad, or loaded into third-party applications.
- A PAS View PDF file, which S&P Global generates directly from the original PAS file without and content changes and saves as PDF.
- Any other PAS attachments that the operator chose to submit alongside the PAS.
