Petroleum Revenue Monitoring System — National Petroleum Agency

A national petroleum agency in a resource-rich African country was relying on manual processes to monitor production volumes and verify royalty payments from upstream operators. Production data was submitted by operators on paper forms, reconciliation was done manually in spreadsheets, and the agency had no independent means of verifying operator-reported figures. The result was significant uncertainty about whether the government was receiving its full fiscal entitlement under production sharing agreements — and limited ability to detect or challenge discrepancies.

This illustrative scenario describes the deployment of Gloseg Technologies' Petroleum Revenue Monitoring System (PRMS) for a national petroleum agency. The implementation would involve: integration with operator production systems for automated data submission; deployment of an independent data validation layer that cross-checks operator-reported figures against metering data; implementation of an automated royalty calculation engine configured for the country's specific PSA structures; and deployment of an executive analytics dashboard providing real-time visibility into production and fiscal flows. The implementation would be phased over 12 months, with operator onboarding and training included.

In this illustrative scenario, the petroleum agency would achieve real-time visibility into production volumes and fiscal flows for the first time. Automated reconciliation would identify discrepancies between operator-reported and independently verified production data. The royalty calculation engine would eliminate manual calculation errors and provide a defensible audit trail for every fiscal calculation. The executive dashboard would enable agency leadership and the energy minister to monitor sector performance in real time.
