The Integrated Oil and Gas System uses a data base concept that allows most information to be entered once and to be used by multiple applications. The Master File Application contains programs and reporting procedures to create and maintain master file records that are common to more than one other application in the system. The programs to maintain files that are not common to multiple applications are included in the applications that use the files.
The following common records are maintained by the Master File Application:
· Chart of Accounts
· Company Identification Masters
· Name and Address Masters
· Lease Masters
· State and County Masters
· Field Masters
· Control Records
· Prospect Masters
· Region and Geological
· Currency Conversion Table
All of the above records are maintained in a single physical file referred to as the Master File; however, each record type is processed separately.
Control records are used to customize the system to the individual users requirements. These records contain information such as valid source codes and printer and date options. The records also identify general ledger accounts that have unique specifications such as requiring a valid lease number with input transactions in order to maintain subsidiary ledgers.
Master File reports may be printed for each record type and lease and name and address labels may also be printed.
There is a single chart of accounts in the system that is shared by all companies. A record is set up in the Master File for each general ledger account and contains the account number, description and other information.
The account number is seven digits consisting of a three digit primary and a four digit sub-account number. The user may assign numbers as desired as long as related sub-accounts are grouped together by the primary number.
The trial balance is printed in account number sequence and heading lines and sub-totals may be specified by using asterisks in the account number.
For example :
ACCOUNT DESCRIPTION
1**-**** --- Assets ---
110-**** --- Cash ---
110-11** Banks
110-1110 First National Bank
110-1120 Second National Bank
111-1200 Petty Cash
120-**** --- Accounts Receivable ---
120-1100 A\R - Investors
120-1110 A\R - Employees
120-1200 A\R - Others
In the above example, account 1**-**** is a description line for ASSETS but does not produce a sub-total. Accounts 100-**** Cash, 110-11** Banks and 120-**** are both description and sub-total lines.
Sub-totals may be produced for primary accounts and the first two digits of the sub-account. In the above example, a sub-total for the primary 110 accounts and a sub-total of accounts 110-1110 and 110-1120 would be printed. A sub-total of the 120 primary accounts would also be printed based on the 120-**** description and sub-total account number.
It should be noted that the example applies to printing of descriptions and sub-totals on the trial balance and other detail reports, but does not apply to profit and loss statements and balance sheets. The sequence, descriptions, spacing and totals for P&L and balance sheets are determined by financial control records that are explained in the General Ledger Application documentation.
In assigning account numbers, it is important to assign separate primary numbers for accounts that have special reporting or processing requirements. For example, certain primary accounts may be designated as billable by control records and any entry transactions that use billable general ledger primary account numbers must include valid lease numbers for Joint Interest Billing. This means that all sub-accounts for a billable primary number are considered billable. The control records that may specify primary account numbers are :
· Billable Primary Accounts
· Gross Amount Primary Accounts
· Net Amount Primary Accounts
· Prospect Primary Accounts
· Lease Number Primary Accounts
· Name and Address Primary Accounts
· Drilling Primary Accounts
Each general ledger account number record may contain a six character category code to control account selection and accumulation by the Revenue Application. The first three characters may be variable and control account selection. The last three characters are defined by the system and specify under which report heading amounts are accumulated.
The first three characters are user defined; however, many companies elect to use the following codes:
Positions
Code
and Explanation
1st position N Non producing
P Producing
2nd & 3rd WI Working interest
positions RI Royalty interest
MI Mineral interest
PP Production payment
NP Net profit interest
The first three characters may be used to select the general ledger accounts that are selected to print lease payout and other reports. For example, producing working interest (PWI) may be entered and only the accounts coded with PWI would be included on the report.
The last three characters of the category code determine the report heading under which the account will be accumulated. The standard codes are:
| Positions | Code | Explanation |
| Last 3 Positions | OIL GAS PLT OTX GTX PTX PXT COM DHY HDL MSC STC LHC IDC EQP DHC LOE DPL DPR |
Oil income Gas income Plant products income Oil production tax Gas production tax Plant products tax Plant products tax Compression Charges Dehydration Charges Handling Charges Miscellaneous Charges Severance Tax Reimbursement Leasehold costs Intangible costs Equipment or tangibles Dry hole cost Lease operating expense Accumulated Depletion Depreciation |
The six character code may be set up for groups of accounts or by individual account. Groups are specified by entering a category code in an account description record - a record that contains a primary account and four asterisks. For example, if 401**** is the description record for the lease operating expense accounts and PWILOE is entered in the category code field of the record, all 401 sub-accounts are accumulated as producing working interest-lease operating expense unless a different category code is set up in a specific 401 sub-account record.
The system uses the category code from the sub-account record if one has been set up. If a category code is not set up for the sub-account, the system uses the code from the description record, i.e., the account with the same primary account and four asterisks in the sub-account field. If a category code is not set up in either the sub-account or description account record, any amount in the account will not be reported.
The Revenue Application requires category codes for:
· Gross and Net Payout Reports and other revenue reports
· Calculation of 90 Per Cent NIL
· The X26B FASTAX Report

At least one company ID record is required for each company that is to be processed by the system. The record contains the company ID number, name and other information such as the first month of the fiscal year.
The size and complexity of the user's organization will determine the number of companies to be set up. The user also has the option of subdividing a company into division and branches. If divisions and branches are used, selected reports may be prepared at the branch level and consolidated for division and overall company reporting.
The company ID number contains the following fields :
Field Size
Company 2 digits
Division 2 digits
Branch 3 digits
An example of the records required for a company with two divisions (one division has no branches, the other division has two branches) follows :
Company Division Branch Explanation
10 00 000 Company Always required
10 10 000 Division Only required if
10 20 000 Division posting to the
10 20 010 Branch 1 division/branch
10 20 020 Branch 2 level.
In the above example, the 10-20-000 division record would not be required if all division 20 transactions are processed against branch records.
In the standard system, the following general ledger accounts apply only to the overall company ID number (10-00-000 in the example).
· Cash
· Accounts Payable
· Accounts Receivable
· Oil and Gas Revenue
The reason for this restriction is that many users only maintain cash, payables, receivables and oil and gas revenue at the overall company level. The system may be customized to allow all general ledger accounts to be used at all levels company, division or branch.
Company 01 Considerations :
A company 01 (01-00-000) record should always be set up since the company 01 name is used for common Master File listings. For example, the company 01 name is used in the heading of name and address listings and chart of accounts listings. The automatic use of the company 01 name applies only to listings of master files that may be used by multiple companies. The specific company name, for example company 10's name, is used for reports such as a trial balance.
Affiliated Company
Considerations:
The system will automatically create joint interest billing and revenue entries for affiliated entities. A company ID record must be set up for the affiliated entity and the company ID number must be set up in the affiliated entity's name and address record. The Joint Interest Billing and Revenue Applications generate inter-company accounting entries if an affiliated company ID is in the name and address record. Partnership books may also be maintained using this approach. For example, assume a corporation that is controlled by a partnership. In this case company 01 would be set up for the corporation which is the operating company. The partnership would be set up as affiliated company 02. Company 01 would joint interest bill and distribute revenue to company 02 and any non-affiliated interests.
Consolidation
Considerations:
Trial balance consolidations are requested by a terminal operator entering the beginning and ending Company ID's. Therefore, company ID's should be assigned in consolidation sequence.
FIELD
EXPLANATION
COMPANY ID - The seven digit company identification :
Company 2 digits
Division 2 digits
Branch or Dept. 3 digits

There is a single name and address file that is shared by all applications. A single record may be set up for each entity with which business is transacted. Each record contains a number to identify the entity, the name and address, telephone number and other information.
The name and address number is seven digits and is normally assigned in alphabetic sequence by name. The system contains an alpha lookup feature that may be used to automatically assign new numbers in alphabetic sequence.
The standard name and address contains eight possible lines:
Line 1 Name
Line 2 Additional Name 1
Line 3 Additional Name 2
Line 4 Additional Name 3
Line 6 Care of Name or Address
Line 7 Address
Line 8 City, State, Zip
The additional name lines are available for printing in any application, although they are used more in Revenue and Lease Records Application.
The record also contains fields for depository charges for delay rental checks, social security number or federal identification number for W2's and 1099's and an affiliated company number.
The affiliated company number is used by the Joint Interest Billing and Revenue Applications to automatically generate accounting entries for the affiliated entities that are set up in the system.
FIELD EXPLANATION
NAME & ADDRESS # - The seven digit name and address number that identifies the entity.
NAME - The 24 character name of the entity. Up to four additional name lines may be used for the Lease Record Application reports
CARE OF - The 22 character care of name. The field may also be used for addresses that require more than one line.
ADDRESS - The 19 character address.
CITY - The 11 character city.
STATE - The two character state abbreviation.
ZIP - The 10 digit zip code.
PHONE # - The telephone number:
Area Code 3 digit
Phone No. 7 digits
Extension 3 digits
INSURANCE DATE - Expiration date for insurance certificates.
DEPOSITORY BANK CHARGE - If this is a depository bank for delay rental or shut-in royalty
checks produced by the Lease Record application, the bank deposit charge is entered. The amount will be automatically added to the rental check amount by the Lease Record Application.
SOCIAL SECURITY OR FEDERAL ID # - The social security or federal ID number for W2's or 1099's. Federal ID numbers are entered with a minus sign (field -).
AFFILIATED CO/DV/BR - If this is an affiliated entity, the company ID is set up in this field.
The Joint Interest Billing and Revenue Applications automatically generate accounting entries for affiliated entities.
Lease master records are set up for all leases and each record contains a lease number, lease name, operator identification, location of the lease and other information. The lease master common data is used by multiple applications; however, for maximum system flexibility, investor working interests and revenue interests are maintained in separate files. The Joint Interest Billing Application maintains records containing investor identification and associated working interests in the Joint Interest Billing File. The Revenue Application maintains the revenue interest and owner identification in the Division of Interest File.
The three records - lease master, joint interest billing and division of interest are identified and associated by lease number. The lease master which contains the general or common lease data and must be set up before a joint interest billing or division of interest record is set up.
The accounting data entry transactions require a lease number to be entered for selected general ledger accounts in order to accumulate revenue and expense by lease. Control records are used to specify general ledger accounts that require a lease number. If an account is specified as billable in a control record, there must be a lease master and a joint interest billing record for the lease. The Revenue Application requires both a lease master and division of interest record to exist before revenue may be posted.
The lease number is seven characters and is sub-divided into a five character primary lease number and a two character suffix. The primary number identifies a specific lease and the suffix identifies sub-divisions within the lease; i.e., the suffix may identify wells within the lease. For example, the following numbering might be used for a lease with five wells.
Lease #
PRIMARY SUFFIX
12340 00 Base Lease Number
12340 01 Well 1
12340 02 Well 2
12340 03 Well 3
12340 04 Well 4
12340 05 Well 5
For the above example one lease master record containing the base lease number 1234000 must be set up in the Master File. Additional master records may be set up for the wells; however, they are not normally required since the base lease information applies to all wells on the lease.
If all wells on the lease have the same working and revenue interest, one set of working interest records would be set up using the base lease number in the Joint Interest Billing Application and one set of division of interest records would be set up using the base lease number in the Revenue Application.
|
Note: The working interest and revenue interest may be different; however, the working interest must be the same for all wells and the revenue interest the same for all wells if only one set of working and revenue interest records are used. |
If expenditures are to be reported by well, the lease number which includes a well identification suffix must be entered as part of the entry transactions that post charges to the lease. For example, to post expenditures for well 02, lease 1234002 is entered along with the general ledger account and amount.
If the user does not wish to report expenditures at the well level, the base lease number 1234000 would be entered for expenditure for all five wells.
If working interests are not the same for all wells on the lease, additional joint interest records must be set up. If the working interest for well 3 was different from well 1, 2, 4, and 5, an additional set of joint interest records would be set up using 1234003 as the lease number.
In some cases multiple sets of joint interest records must be set up for the same well. An example is when before and after casing point interests are different. Assume a lease with three wells with different before and after working interests; however, the before interest is the same for all wells and the after casing point interest is the same for all wells. An example of the numbering might be:
Lease #
PRIMARY SUFFIX
12350 00 Base Lease Number
12350 B0 Base Before Casing Point
12350 A0 Base After Casing Point
12350 B1 Well 1 Before Casing Point
12350 B2 Well 2 Before Casing Point
12350 B3 Well 3 Before Casing Point
12350 A1 Well 1 After Casing Point
12350 A2 Well 2 After Casing Point
12350 A3 Well 3 After Casing Point
Records for the base lease 1235000 must be set up in the Master and Joint Interest Billing Files. Two additional sets of records would be set up for the before and after casing point working interests in the Joint Interest Billing Application, 12350B0 for the before and 12350A0 for the after casing point interests.
To report charges by well, the primary lease and a well suffix must be entered as part of the input transaction that records charges to the lease. For example, to post before casing point expenditures for well 3, Lease 12350B3 is entered with the general ledger account and amount. To bill investors for their share, the Joint Interest Billing Application would use the working interest from the 12350B0 joint interest records.
The Joint Interest Billing Application determines the investor working interests from the lease number entered for the expenditure in the following manner:
a. The full seven character lease number (lease number with well suffix) is used to find matching joint interest records. If an exact match occurs, the working interests from the matching records are used.
b. If an exact match is not found, a zero is moved to the seventh position of the entered lease and the new number is used to match against the records in the Joint Interest Billing File. If a match occurs, the working interests from the matching records are used.
c. If a match does not occur in 1 or 2 above, the working interests from the base lease (suffix 00) are used.
This procedure is called the "Three Tier Lease Lookup"
In the example, expenditures were posted for Lease 12350B3. A match would not occur on the full seven character lease since a 12350B3 lease was not set up in the Joint Interest File. A match would occur when a zero was moved to the last position of the expenditure lease since 12350B0 is set up in the Joint Interest File.
Summary :
1. The lease number is seven characters. The first five characters sub-divisions within the lease.
2. A base lease number record, a lease record with zeros for the suffix, must be set up in the master file for all leases.
3. If the Joint Interest Billing Application is installed, joint interest records must be set up for the investors using the base lease number. Additional records must be set up for wells if working interests are not the same.
4. If the Revenue Application is installed, division of interest records must be set up for the owners using the base lease number.

The Integrated Oil and Gas System uses control records to customize the applications to the individual users' requirements. The records specify valid source codes, set printer and date default values, identify operating company numbers and specify general ledger accounts where amounts are recorded by lease number and other special requirements.
This section of the documentation provides detailed information for the control records that apply to multiple applications. Control records that are used by single applications are explained in documentation of the specific application.
The control records discussed in this section are :
·
Source Codes
and Descriptions
· System Generated Batch Number Descriptions
· Printer and Date Defaults
· Options
· Operating Company Identification
· Accounts Receivable Account Numbers
· Accounts Payable Account Numbers
· Cash Account Numbers
· Lease Number Primary Accounts
· Name and Address Primary Accounts
· Net Amount Primary Accounts
· Gross Amount Primary Accounts
Explanations of the above control records are contained on the following pages and sample input forms are in the Sample.
Two digit source codes are used by the system to identify the type of transactions that produce an accounting entry. The standard codes used are listed below :
CASH RECEIPTS
10 Cash Receipts
15 Cash Receipt - DO NOT BILL
CASH DISBURSEMENTS
20 Manual Checks
21 Computer Accounts Payable Checks
22 Payroll Checks
24 Triggered Manual Checks
25 Checks - DO NOT BILL
26 Lease Records Delay Rental or Shut-in Royalty Checks
JOURNAL ENTRIES
30 Journal Entries
33 Payroll Journal Entries
35 Journal Entries - DO NOT BILL
SALES
40 Sales
ACCOUNTS PAYABLE
50 Accounts Payable
53 Non Operated
55 Accounts Payable - DO NOT BILL
57 Cash Basis
58 Accounts Payable - IMMEDIATE BILL
All source codes that end with the digit 5 are "Do Not Bill" codes. This applies to Joint Interest Billing and means that amounts entered using source codes that ends in a 5 will not be billed to investors or affiliated companies even though the general ledger account is specified as billable, i.e., 100 percent of the amount is charged to the processing company and there is no joint interest distribution.
Accounts payable source code 58, Immediate Bill, is used to produce joint interest billing for specified items outside the normal billing cycle. Joint interest invoices are normally produced once a month for all expenditures that have been accumulated during the month. Source code 58 allows special joint interest invoices to be produced that select only expenditures that have the special 58 code. This code may be used when the operator receives an unusually large bill and wishes to bill investors for their share immediately.
The various applications use 900 series batch numbers to identify system generated transactions. The generated batch numbers and associated descriptions obtained from control records print on the "Accounting Recap Report".
The following descriptions should be set up in the control file.

The user should only set up source codes for the applications installed. The input form in the Sample Forms Section may be used to record the users entries. Note that all source codes are set up in one record, and individual records are used for descriptions.
The printer and date default control record associates printers with specific work stations and sets up a default report date. Each work station may be assigned a default printer ID; however, if one is not set up the system printer (P1) will be used for print requests.
The system automatically displays a Data and Printer Information Screen whenever a report is requested from a work station. A report date along with other information such as default printer ID and number of copies are displayed on the screen.
The report date that is displayed is the month ending date of the current month, the prior month or the ending date two months ago. The control determines which of the three dates is displayed. See the input form in the Sample Forms Section for a detailed explanation of how the date is controlled. The form may also be used as a source entry document for work station printer assignment.
The default report date and printer assignments may be changed on the Date and Printer Information Screen when a work station operator requests a report.
The options control record is used to specify if the Joint Interest Billing Application is installed and to identify the account number that separates balance sheet and profit and loss general ledger account numbers.
See the input form in the Sample Forms Section for a detailed explanation and use the form as a source document to set up the control record.
The operating company control record identifies the companies that operate leases. The data is used by the system to verify company numbers that do joint interest billing or process revenue.
The control records require two entries for each operating company, the operating company ID and the processing company ID. If the operating company has an interest in any lease, the operating company ID is entered as both the operating and processing company.
If the operating company has been set up as an accounting entity only and has no interest in any lease, the processing company ID may be the affiliated company ID that has an interest in the leases. It should be noted that the processing company would have to always have an interest record in the lease, i.e., a zero interest is valid. The advantage of this approach is that zero net amount joint interest records are not generated for the operating company. Gross amount records are generated for operating companies that specify a different processing company.

The name and address number is included in the records written to the Capture File. The data from these records may be printed on the Year to Date Transactions Report by Name and Address Number.
It should be noted that the accounts specified in the accounts receivable and accounts payable control records require name and address numbers and these accounts do not need to be included in the name and address control record. An example of accounts where detail records may be required are notes receivable and notes payable: i.e., the user may wish to maintain a subsidiary ledger by name and address number for these accounts.
