Built by the people who had to make the call.
Tessera started inside operating companies, in the meetings where someone has to say whether to drill the section. We built the platform we wished we had, then built the data underneath it so nobody has to rent it.
Decisions, not dashboards.
Data and models belong together.
A model is only as honest as the data under it. Owning both means every prediction traces to a real well on a real map.
Machine learning is machinery.
Nobody wakes up needing a gradient boosted model. They need to know what the acreage is worth. The machinery stays underneath.
Your data never leaves.
Proprietary data trains private models inside your tenant. Tessera's public data makes them better. Nothing flows the other way.
A small team deserves the same intelligence.
A ten-person independent or a family mineral holding should not need an enterprise license to see what is happening around their acreage.
Three products.
Tessera Data
The foundation.
Curated, analytics-ready upstream datasets across major U.S., Canadian and Argentine basins: well headers, production, lateral surveys, completions, permits, DUCs, landing zones, spacing, parent-child relationships and proprietary subsurface attributes, joined at the wellbore.
- Well headers
- Production
- Lateral surveys
- Completions
- Permits and DUCs
- Landing zones
- Spacing
- Parent-child relationships
- Proprietary subsurface attributes
- And more
Tessera Quest
Ask the basin a question.
Ask a question in plain language and Quest runs it against every well Tessera holds: it builds the map, the chart or the valuation, benchmarks operators and zones, lists the wells behind an answer and watches the basin for you. Every number comes from Tessera Data, so it shows its work instead of guessing.
- Plain-language questions, answered from 4 million plus wells
- Maps, dashboards and production curves on demand
- Operator, zone and vintage benchmarks across basins
- Type curves and valuation for any selection
- Well lists you can map, copy or export
- Alerts on permits, spuds, completions and rigs
- Your own shapefiles, well lists and price decks
- Answers grounded in Tessera Data, not guesses
- And more
Tessera AI Engine
Models for every decision.
Train basin-specific models on your own wells plus Tessera Data, then put them to work: forecast any well, explain what drives it, calibrate spacing and parent-child degradation, design the pad and the completion, run the economics and bid the deal. Every number carries its inputs, so a VP can sign off on it.
- Production forecasting from completion, geology and spacing
- Model insights: drivers, geo quality and residuals
- Spacing and parent-child degradation calibration
- Pad planner with gunbarrel design and well scoring
- Completion design optimizer
- Decline curves, type curves and DCF economics
- Remaining inventory and acreage valuation
- Deal flow: acreage and wellbore bids in minutes
- And more
A tessera is one tile in a mosaic.
A section, a bench, a well, a month of production. Each one is small. Together they form the picture of a basin. That is the whole idea.
Where we have been showing the work.
Operator-side scar tissue.
