Full Energy Supply Chain Transparency with Energy Path Powered by Energy Data Studio

Energy Path enables users to trace the journey of every molecule of oil and natural gas from its origin at the wellhead, through processing and transportation, to final demand points. With real-time insight into each molecule’s pathway, Energy Path offers unmatched transparency and operational control across the full natural gas production and delivery chain.

Case Study: Expand Energy in the Northeast Basin

Expand Energy is a leading operator in the Northeast Basin, actively developing natural gas assets. As a significant contributor to the basin’s upstream activity, the company plays a central role in shaping supply dynamics in this growing regional hub.

Producer-Level Production Visibility

A key challenge for many in the industry is rapidly accessing production volumes by operator. With Energy Path, users can instantly view Expand Energy’s production activity—including well-level maps and historical output trends—offering critical insight into their position within the Northeast’s natural gas landscape.

Seamless Transition from Producer to System-Level Production

Expand Energy's production volumes feed into multiple gathering and processing (G&P) systems, with a substantial share moving into the Williams Midstream (WMB) network. Historically, tracking the flow of gas from upstream operator to system-level output has been cumbersome. Energy Path simplifies this workflow, enabling users to view:

  • Production forecasts for each relevant midstream system
  • Gross gas production levels tied to each operator’s footprint
  • Insights into the relationship between gas volumes and downstream infrastructure

Pipeline Flow Monitoring for End-to-End Supply Chain Transparency

Energy Path provides a holistic view of how natural gas travels from the field to its final destination. At the plant level, users can monitor how molecules transition into long-haul pipelines that service major markets.

For example, natural gas associated to the WMB – Bradford Supply Hub system, connects to the Tennessee Gas Pipeline—a critical conduit to demand on the Appalachian Region (West Virginia, New Jersey, New York, and New England). This level of tracking is essential for understanding market bottlenecks, optimizing transport strategies, and managing commercial risk.

Conclusion

East Daley Analytics’ Energy Path, powered by Energy Data Studio, provides industry professionals with an unparalleled view of the energy supply chain. From wellhead to end customer, the platform offers a seamless, data-driven approach to production monitoring, system-level forecasting, plant analysis, and pipeline tracking. By leveraging Energy Path, users gain the insights needed to make informed decisions and stay ahead in the ever-evolving energy landscape.
