This makes TIES the most functionally complete, cost effective software solution for Producers and Midstream energy companies available. Below is a synopsis of each of the 4 new “TIES in the Cloud” clients.

Montage Resources, www.montageresources.com , a merger of Blue Ridge Mountain Resources and Eclipse Resources, selected TIES in order to increase their operational efficiency relative to the Scheduling and Marketing of their Natural Gas, Crude Oil, NGLs, and Water. Prior to implementing TIES, Montage was dependent upon spreadsheets to gather and process the data necessary to support Well Netback calculations for Revenue Distribution, Shipper Imbalances, as well as Invoicing for products sold.
- Quick Implementation … 3 months from start to “go live”
- Full Functionality … Producer Services and Marketing of Natural Gas, Crude Oil, NGLs and Water
- Improved Operational Efficiencies … eliminated all spreadsheets associated with Scheduling, Marketing, Invoicing, and Well Netback Pricing … all done via TIES
- Automated Business Processes …wellhead scheduling from meter to 1st delivery location, Well Price Net backing, Imbalance Monitoring, and Invoice creation
- Existing 3rd Party Interfaces … Enertia (Accounting), Prodview (Measurement), Platts (Pricing)
- Custom Dashboards, Workbenches, and Reports … to monitor performance, imbalances, process step results, etc.
- Full Supply Chain Management and Auditability … ability to audit results and changes, automatic PPAs (Prior Period Adjustments)
- Cost Effective Cloud Hosting and IT Support … least expensive in the industry

Flywheel Energy, www.flywheelenergy.com , acquired from Southwestern Energy certain Natural Gas Production assets (i.e. approx. 4,000 wells), as well as the Desoto Gas Gathering System (i.e. scheduling and allocating over 14,000 transactions per day). Flywheel Energy selected “TIES in the Cloud” as the system to support their needs for Production Services and as operator of the Desoto Gas Gathering System.
Trilogy Implemented TIES from start to “go live” in 3 months. It was important to Flywheel that they be able to operate efficiently with minimal staff, thus TIES BRP (Business Process Robotics) was deployed to automate certain business processes and thus keep staffing requirements at a minimum.
- Quick Implementation … 3 months from start to “go live”
- Full Functionality … Producer Services, Marketing, and Gathering System Operator
- Improved Operational Efficiencies … eliminated all spreadsheets associated with wellhead Scheduling, and Well Netback Pricing … automated previously manual steps/processes … reduced staffing needs from 6 persons to 2 persons.
- Automated Business Processes …

- Custom Dashboards, Workbenches, and Reports … to monitor: Shipper Imbalances & Cash Outs, OBAs, Working Interest Owner Imbalances, Volumes received for Allocation, etc.
- Full Supply Chain Management and Auditability … ability to audit results and changes, automatic PPAs (Prior Period Adjustments)
- Cost Effective Cloud Hosting and IT Support … least expensive in the industry
1849 Energy Partners, www.1849energy.com ,acquired several assets from Aethon Energy, including: Producing wells, 3 gathering systems, and one gas processing plant. Thus 1849 Energy needed the ability to act in the role of Producer, scheduling and marketing their production while providing Well Netback pricing for Revenue Distribution. They also needed the ability to act as Gas Gathering System Operator, as well as Gas Plant Operator. TIES provided full functionality to support all of these roles, as well as automatic interfaces between these roles as necessary.
