Gathering and Analyzing Public Data with John Ferrell (OBDP 071)

In this episode, John Ferrell (Co-Founder/CEO at WellDatabase) joins us to discuss the space of oil & gas public data. While a lot of public data exists, it is mainly hosted at the state level, making it difficult to acquire consistent data across the United States. John walks us through WellDatabase's process of collecting, cleaning, conglomerating, analyzing, and displaying the data. He also discusses normalization, inferred vs. reported data, and more!
