TGS and Oseberg Collaborate to Enhance Energy Data Integration

HOUSTON, Texas (June 9, 2025) – TGS ASA, a global leader in energy data and intelligence, has announced a strategic partnership with Oseberg, a premier provider of lease and regulatory data specifically tailored for the energy sector. This collaboration aims to integrate Oseberg's lease data attributes into TGS' Well Data Analytics (WDA) platform, thereby enhancing analytical capabilities for energy and production (E&P) companies.

This first phase of the integration enables WDA users to seamlessly access lease ownership data across Texas, New Mexico, and Oklahoma, alongside other critical subsurface well data. The combined offering is designed to improve operational efficiencies for E&P companies, helping them to plan wells more effectively while minimizing legal and operational risks. Key applications of this integration include merger and acquisition analysis, project site planning, investment evaluations, and resource inventory management.

Carl Neuhaus, Vice President of Well Data Products at TGS, emphasized the significance of this partnership, stating, "Our partnership with Oseberg creates a full-service subsurface data offering that combines the highest quality lease data with the most comprehensive geological and well database. Integrating Oseberg lease ownership data empowers our users to verify land ownership in minutes and utilize TGS data to quantify resource deliverability, improve development planning accuracy, and quickly identify the most valuable opportunities. Together, we are developing workflows with customers to ensure seamless integration and the hassle-free displacement of existing solutions."

Evan Anderson, CEO and Co-Founder of Oseberg, highlighted the importance of structured and context-rich information for making informed decisions. He stated, "For our lease ownership data, we’ve chosen to focus where others haven’t: structuring the unstructured filings that underpin everything from the right to drill to the creation of proration units at the tract and formation level. This layer of insight is the bedrock on which reserves, strategy, and execution rely. When we found a partner with complementary strengths in well and production data, TGS was the clear choice. Together, we’re harmonizing two bedrock layers of the upstream story, and we’re excited about the possibilities this partnership presents for the market."

TGS is renowned for maintaining the industry’s most extensive well data library, comprising over 100 years of curated public and non-public sources. Its Well Data Analytics tool integrates high-quality well data with adaptable search workflows, advanced plotting, map-based visualizations, and customizable dashboards, all within a cloud-based application. Oseberg, on the other hand, is transforming unusable oil and gas public filings into actionable intelligence through its advanced natural language processing engine, capable of handling inconsistent formatting and domain-specific language.

This partnership comes at a time of increasing demand for precise and actionable data in the energy sector, as companies strive to optimize their operations amid a rapidly changing regulatory landscape. By integrating comprehensive lease data with well data, TGS and Oseberg are poised to provide E&P companies with a competitive edge, enabling them to navigate the complexities of land ownership and leasehold constraints more efficiently.

As the partnership progresses, both companies are committed to continually refining their offerings to meet the evolving needs of the energy sector. This strategic collaboration not only enhances the data capabilities available to E&P companies but also sets a precedent for future partnerships in the industry, emphasizing the importance of integrated data solutions in driving operational efficiency and strategic decision-making in the energy sector.
