OIL 
AND GAS

We have considerable experience and knowledge of the upstream Oil & Gas sector and have undertaken document and records management and virtual data room projects for a number of key players in this sector.

Virtual Data Rooms


Features

  • Interactive Q & A
  • Viewing permissions functionality, facilitating control as to "who sees what and when". Particularly useful in multi-package divestments.
  • Permissions setting logs and user viewing logs. Who saw what and when?
  • The ability to create an auto-launching extract of data room for distribution on CD or DVD. Useful for extended due diligence
  • Document security - the ability to inhibit any of either viewing, printing or saving a document by way of permissions server call. This feature supports any CA.
  • Colour coded footprint - if a viewer has looked at the document, it is evident to him
  • User reporting - what have I looked at, what have I not. Reassures the user that nothing has been added that he hasn't seen

Benefits

  • Simultaneous due diligence resulting in reduced transaction time
  • Increased access to potential acquirers resulting in higher sales price
  • Impression of multiple interested parties resulting in stronger negotiation position
  • Reduced data room costs (reprographic, manning, updating)
  • Reduced reprographic costs
  • Reduced transaction costs
  • Enhanced document security & confidentiality
