CAPITAN / Methodology reference
A mismatch in the records is a reason to investigate. What matters is knowing what the answer actually establishes.
In this reference, we reconciled district labels, traced dated production records and made the remaining field-evidence requirements explicit.
Different representations of a district.
The labels alone did not indicate different assets.
The PDQ district code 10 and the EWA district label 08 initially appeared inconsistent. The RRC district lookup maps code 10 to label 08, Midland. The labels alone did not indicate different assets.
Reading a code in its source context changed how the apparent conflict should be understood.
We traced the API to dated gas production records. Those volumes establish historical gas production reported for the well under its RRC gas ID; they do not establish gas available for a new project.
The distinction matters when a historical production figure becomes part of a prospective energy-to-compute discussion.
Current flow measurements, gas quality, gas-use rights and pipeline access still require evidence before a site decision.
A useful finding also makes the next investigation clearer: what to measure, what to verify and which question remains open.
In ZAI’s first real-world governed execution, twelve material engineering parameters were preserved as UNKNOWN rather than estimated. Preserving uncertainty is a feature of the methodology, not a gap in the report.
Methodology reference only. CAPITAN did not commission, purchase, endorse, approve or certify ZAI’s services.
For an accepted engagement, we apply this method to your own asset and decision: a human-reviewed report with findings, dated sources, unresolved issues and specific next evidence requests.
We confirm the available evidence, service scope and delivery date before accepting the work.
