DCA: Exporting Results
This article covers how to export results. Once you have created a new project, modified your interpretation, and customized the economics you will probably want to export the results as a next step.
To do this, simply go to File >> Download decline curves…
After clicking a confirmation box will appear, and then the export will begin. You can track the status in the “Jobs” tab, as shown below.
In general the software should process ~1000 wells with monthly production data per minute. Daily data and analyses using “Best Fit” can take longer.
The results will download as a CSV file in your web browser.

DCA: Type well curves
In this video I demonstrate how to generate a well set filtered by a number of criteria and generate a multi-well type curve. Before starting this video you should already know how to load your data and create a DCA project. If not, please review those videos. Type well curves are generated by creating a decline that represents data from multiple wells.
DCA: Loading Production data
In this video I demonstrate how to load production and well header data for use in a decline curve analysis project. The first step is to gather your data. You’ll need: Production data – this can be in CSV, Excel, or IHS 298 formats. For spreadsheet formats you’ll need columns for API, Date, Oil, Gas, Water (optional), and days of production for that period (optional). Well header data – this can be in CSV, Excel, or IHS 297 formats.
