How to Catapult Yourself into the Top 3% of Operationally Efficient Oil & Gas Producers (and Approach Your Most Profitable Operation*) in 30 Days or Less – all via a Simple Mobile App 📲
*Average Results of Producers who run the Greasebook app in their operations for 12 months 👀
- 38% reduction in downtime 📉
- 14% reduction in overhead expense💰
- 4% increase in production 📈
- Claw back 2 to 20 hrs per user per week (varying upon responsibilities of user) ⏳
- $33K reduction in preventable errors (salt water spills, oil spills, stripping out wells, injector well blowouts, etc) 🚫
Built exclusively for the smart independent oil & gas operator, GreaseBook is the only mobile-first gauge sheet solution built to run explicitly on your smartphone or tablet. We outfit and manage the necessary hardware for administration, management, and your entire pumping crew. We offer a painless and complete field production management solution - lock, stock, and barrel. Turn us on, and go to work.
Where in the world did we come from? We see a new trend in the making, an opportunity. This isn't a simple an improvement over existing solutions, it's a fundamental breakthrough. 8-Day gauge sheets on their best day cannot be interactive. Fax machines and phone reports on their best day cannot run themselves. File cabinets and Excel-based production reports on their best day cannot provide quick answers to important questions, and can't aggregate all of your information and display it in a way that's easy to act on. GreaseBook can.
GreaseBook wants you to know that a new wave is coming, and that we intend to domesticate this technology explicitly for the small oil & gas operator.

MOIC Partners specializes in guiding SaaS B2B software companies in the energy sector. Our clients face challenges in sales processes and pricing strategy after the market has shown significant demand for their solution. We generally become relevant when (i) a founders rolodex-based method of sales pipe development and management turns lean, or (ii) a company is trying to cross from the early adopter to the early majority part of the market. With regard to the sales process, MOICs targeted outcomes for clients are:
• Enable Forecast Accuracy - 90% of bookings forecast reliably (using a behavioral observation model).
• Convince Sophisticated Prospects - Enable a process in which large accounts will place confidence in your ability to support them.
• Substantially Lower the Cost of Scale - Enable a method to "train up" sales resources and avoid the otherwise heavy expenses of achieving a high participation rate among sales personnel (a key element to high exit value).
With regard to pricing, MOICs targeted outcomes for clients are:
• Pricing Increase in Next Deal of 20%.
• Configure licenses in a way allowed by customers that retain maximum license upside.
** We are former software company operators and SaaS investors who had to specifically solve these very common problems among companies endeavoring to become relevant. We have built and sold to IBM, AT&T, PTC, LLR, Siemens, IHS-Market, and others.

A select group of companies that market and trade natural gas in North America has formed and invested in Eleox to re-imagine commodity post-trade processing.
We are creating an enterprise-grade application based on distributed ledger technology (DLT) to replace many existing, siloed post-trade systems.
This secure, real-time digital approach will manage transactions from post-trade through settlement, replacing paper-based contracts and manual reconciliation processes.
While we are focused on natural gas today, we have ambitions to expand into power and to build a platform to track carbon emissions data across a range of commodities, from the source to the end-user. Our vision is to support broader energy markets and the transition to a lower carbon future.
