AI decision intelligence for energy capital allocation—fast, defensible decisions
DecisionCompass is an AI-powered decision intelligence platform built for decision analysts, senior economists, and strategic planning leaders in energy—professionals responsible for turning complex data into high-stakes capital decisions under pressure.
In oil and gas, the cost of making the right call is often measured in millions to billions. When decisions are slow or misaligned, projects slip, budgets overrun, and risk escalates—especially in today’s volatile environment, where geopolitical tension and supply uncertainty are forcing tougher trade-offs across portfolios. Leading E&P firms are already exploring new approaches to decision-making, creating urgency for teams still relying on manual workflows.
The gap we close
DecisionCompass addresses a critical gap: while existing tools provide data, models, and visualization, they stop short of delivering clear, defensible recommendations. Analysts are left stitching together spreadsheets and slides—repeating the same process every quarter. DecisionCompass replaces this with a structured decision layer that produces auditable, board-ready outputs.- AI-driven initial scoring that reduces agenda-driven bias while preserving expert control
- Automation of the “middle third” of analysis—freeing economists to focus on insight and narrative
- Faster alignment across stakeholders with transparent assumptions and trade-offs
DecisionCompass is an AI-powered decision agent that helps leaders make complex decisions faster and with greater confidence by combining decision science, cognitive AI, and human judgment. Unlike generic chatbots that default to easy answers, DecisionCompass pushes stakeholders to think critically, engage, collaborate, and exercise sound judgment. Its decision-science core models how people actually decide and is powered by Computerized Decision-Process Tracing and algorithms grounded in more than a decade of research by Professor Alex Mintz, a globally recognized leader in decision science.
Typical dilemmas
- Capital allocation across competing projects
- Portfolio rebalancing under price volatility
- Site selection and capacity expansion decisions
- Go / no-go on major projects or FIDs
- Commercial negotiations and partner trade-offs
- Production vs. cost vs. risk optimization decisions
How it works
- Upload existing materials: Excel, PowerPoint, PDFs, reports, and assumptions
- Automatically generate a structured decision matrix: alternatives, criteria, and trade-offs
- Create an initial AI-supported heat map to accelerate evaluation
- Let experts adjust inputs, weights, assumptions, and scoring through a human-in-the-loop workflow
- Run sensitivity analysis to test “what-if” scenarios
- Generate a clear recommendation with rationale and full audit trail for stakeholders and decision committees
- Run dynamic scenarios as field conditions change, uncertainty is high, and decisions must be made quickly
DecisionCompass gives energy decision leaders a faster path from complex inputs to clear, defensible action—combining AI speed with human judgment, decision-science rigor, and a full audit trail.
