An oil & gas practitioner describes OCR'ing millions of pages of well test data into a searchable index so LLMs and agents can query it directly.
- The archive covers well records, production records, well tests, proration data, and more — retrievable by the author or by an agent.
- Finding specific well files used to take 40+ hours; prospect generation on old fields is now far faster and, in his words, quite fun.
