Retsil
Run a coordinate anywhere in the world and get a preliminary drill/no-drill read, target depth, rig type, completion approach, and a ballpark well cost. Where public federal well records exist — currently the US Gulf of Mexico and Alaska OCS — the engine uses live data. Everywhere else it uses regional basin context and tells you the difference.

Offshore status codes from public feeds do not prove a trap, seal, reservoir quality, or commercial hydrocarbons. Water depth is estimated from basin heuristics, not real-time bathymetry. A positive screening is a signal to acquire 2D/3D seismic, run logs and cores, and have a licensed petroleum geologist or engineer review the prospect before committing tens of millions of dollars to a well. Retsil does not guarantee production or prevent a dry hole.
