# Fdas Economics

## When to Use

- NPV (Net Present Value) calculations for field developments
- MIRR (Modified Internal Rate of Return) analysis
- IRR (Internal Rate of Return) evaluation
- Cashflow modeling for offshore projects
- Development system classification (dry, subsea15, subsea20)
- Production forecasting and analysis
- Drilling timeline extraction and cost modeling
- BSEE data integration for economic analysis
- Excel report generation for stakeholder presentation

## Prerequisites

- Python environment with `worldenergydata` package installed
- BSEE production and well data (optional, for real field analysis)
- Lease assumptions Excel file (optional, for custom assumptions)

## Python API

### Financial Calculations

```python
from worldenergydata.fdas import (
    calculate_npv,
    excel_like_mirr,
    calculate_irr,
    calculate_payback,
    calculate_all_metrics
)
import numpy as np


*See sub-skills for full details.*
### Assumptions Management

```python
from worldenergydata.fdas import AssumptionsManager, classify_dev_system_by_depth

# Load assumptions from Excel
mgr = AssumptionsManager.from_excel('lease_assumptions.xlsx')

# Classify development system by water depth
dev_system = classify_dev_system_by_depth(water_depth=4500)
# Returns: 'subsea15' (500-6000 ft)


*See sub-skills for full details.*
### Production Processing

```python
from worldenergydata.fdas.data import ProductionProcessor
import pandas as pd

# Load production data
production_df = pd.read_csv('production_data.csv')
processor = ProductionProcessor(production_df)

# Monthly aggregation by development
monthly = processor.aggregate_monthly(by='DEV_NAME')

*See sub-skills for full details.*
### Drilling Timeline Extraction

```python
from worldenergydata.fdas.data import DrillingTimelineExtractor

# Extract drilling timeline
extractor = DrillingTimelineExtractor(well_data)

timeline = extractor.extract_timeline(
    development_name='ANCHOR',
    gap_months=3  # Campaign gap threshold
)

print(f"First Spud: {timeline['first_spud']}")
print(f"Last Completion: {timeline['last_completion']}")
print(f"Total Drilling Months: {len(timeline['drilling_monthly'])}")
```
### Cashflow Engine

```python
from worldenergydata.fdas.analysis import CashflowEngine
from datetime import datetime

# Initialize cashflow engine
engine = CashflowEngine(assumptions_mgr, dev_system='subsea15')

# Generate monthly cashflows
cashflows = engine.generate_monthly_cashflow(
    production_monthly=monthly_production,

*See sub-skills for full details.*
### BSEE Data Integration

```python
from worldenergydata.fdas import BseeAdapter
from pathlib import Path

# Initialize BSEE adapter
adapter = BseeAdapter(Path('data/modules/bsee/current'))

# Load data by development
dev_data = adapter.load_by_development('ANCHOR')
production = dev_data['production']

*See sub-skills for full details.*
### Excel Report Generation

```python
from worldenergydata.fdas.reports import FDASReportBuilder

# Generate formatted Excel report
builder = FDASReportBuilder(
    development_name='ANCHOR',
    cashflows=cashflows,
    assumptions=assumptions_mgr,
    dev_system='subsea15'
)

builder.generate_report('anchor_economics.xlsx')
print("Excel report generated: anchor_economics.xlsx")
```
### Complete Workflow Example

```python
from worldenergydata.fdas import (
    AssumptionsManager,
    BseeAdapter,
    calculate_all_metrics
)
from worldenergydata.fdas.data import (
    ProductionProcessor,
    DrillingTimelineExtractor
)

*See sub-skills for full details.*
