Automated decline curve and forecasting tools are reshaping petroleum economics workflows — but they also introduce new risks when engineers accept outputs without validation. PHDwin Week 2026 features dedicated sessions on how to work with auto-forecasting tools intelligently: understanding their assumptions, catching their failure modes, and producing reserve estimates that hold up under audit. Ahead of the SPEE Software Symposium, this is the conversation the industry is having and where we want experts to bring their view on what keeps you ahead of the curve.
Is ethics contrived, or is it something real? Business and regulatory pressures can cloud what we think is ethical behavior, and consequences for improper behavior can be dependent on the jurisdiction. What are the definitions of appropriate judgment of behavior and reporting in your organization — and would your actions or behavior be acceptable in another jurisdiction or country?
Every PHDwin Week session qualifies for continuing education credit. Attend live or watch on demand — credits are available either way. Request your certificate after the event. Accepted for P.E. license renewal in all U.S. states.
Every PHDwin Week includes a dedicated ethics session led by a practicing P.E. — tailored specifically to reserve forecasting, economics, and the real-world situations petroleum engineers face. It satisfies the mandatory annual ethics hour required for P.E. license holders. Completely free.
PHDwin Week showcases how PHDwin V3 connects with the tools you already use — WellDatabase & Energy Domain for production data, whitson+ for reservoir simulation, Spotfire & Tableau for visualization + analystics, and excel for end-user cases.
Learn workflows that leverage PHDwin as your core economics engine, integrated within your entire stack.
PHDwin Week is not a vendor presentation. Every session is led by practicing petroleum engineers and consultants who use PHDwin in real evaluations, reserve reports, and A&D transactions. Learn correct workflows, common mistakes to avoid, and how to produce defensible, auditable reserve estimates.

Dwayne Stewart, MBA, P.E. · Foundation Energy Advisors
The most-cited favorite session across all 2025 respondents. A real case study in diagnostic plots and PHDwin V3 workflows catching a catastrophic reserve overestimation before it hit a deal.
Garrett Gremillion · Oakstone Resources
Universally praised as the most relevant, industry-specific ethics presentation attendees had encountered. Multiple P.E.s noted it directly satisfied their required annual ethics hour — and that the discussion around auto-forecasting was "particularly relevant and timely."
Thad Toups, P.E. · Haas & Cobb Petroleum Consultants
Addresses how to apply engineering judgment against auto-forecasting outputs to avoid professionally costly errors. Ranked in the top replay sessions by a majority of respondents.
John Ferrell · WellDatabase
Top-ranked for replay. Demonstrates PHDwin as the core economics engine integrated with WellDatabase for production data import — a live workflow attendees could immediately apply.
Richard Scherer · Industry Consultant
Practical type curve construction methodology anchored in real Permian Basin data. Consistently top-ranked for replay value across multiple years.could immediately apply.
Dwayne Purvis, P.E. · Purvis Energy Advisors
Addresses P&A liability — a rapidly growing concern across the industry. Multiple attendees said this session directly changed how they model asset economics and plugging cost assumptions.
