EnCana Oil & Gas (USA) Inc.

In May 2002, PanCanadian Petroleum Limited and Alberta Energy Company Ltd completed their previously announced merger, creating EnCana Corporation.  EnCana is North America's largest independent natural gas producer and gas storage operator. Ninety percent of the Company's assets are in four key North American growth platforms. EnCana is the largest producer and landholder in Western Canada and is a key player in Canada's emerging offshore East Coast basins. In the U.S., EnCana is one of the largest gas explorers and producers in the Rocky Mountain states and has a strong land position in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico.

Both PanCanadian and Alberta Energy Company were clients of eXigent prior to the merger.  PanCanadian had previously acquired the exploration, production, midstream and marketing assets of The Montana Power Company, including the gathering and processing facilities held by its subsidiary, North American Resources Company (NARCO)

NARCO and its successors have been using the GPIS system since 1997 to account for its gas gathering and processing facilities in the D-J Basin in Colorado and the Cut Bank area of Montana.  In June 2002, Encana acquired the Dragon Trail Gas Plant, located in the Piceance Basin of Colorado and Utah, from El Paso Field Services.  The accounting for this processing plant was converted by eXigent from the TIPS system used by El Paso to the GPIS system.

A modified budgeting version of the GPIS system has been used by NARCO to generate detailed 12 month budgets by applying reservoir engineering volumetric projections against existing and projected contractual obligations and allocation methodologies.
