How the numbers are calculated

A year of hours (8,760) and an average month, since this looks forward.

Runtime gained

points = target runtime − runtime today

In percentage points.

Production regained

BOE/d = units × BOE/d per unit × points ÷ 100

Value = BOE × price × 365 for a year.

Rent no longer wasted

rent = units × monthly rental × 12 × points ÷ 100

Rent paid on hours a unit wasn’t compressing.

Vendor Callout comparison

units billed in steps of 5 (20 minimum) × price per unit × 12

Days to cover = annual subscription ÷ (annual gain ÷ 365).

Frequently asked questions

At least the guarantee in your rental contract, commonly 95% to 99%. Fleets that document every callout and review vendors monthly routinely run near their guarantee; the case study on this site went from 77% to 98.6% in six months.

Faster vendor response, shorter repairs and fewer repeat failures. All three improve once every outage is timestamped and reviewed with the vendor, because the slow ones become visible.

This page looks forward a whole year, so it uses a full year of hours and an average month. Credits for a specific month use that month’s calendar hours.

At the published subscription price per compressor unit, billed in steps of 5 with a 20-unit minimum, before the small per-user fee. It shows how many days of the improvement would cover a year of the subscription.

No. It is the arithmetic of the runtime you enter. Your results depend on your vendors, your iron and how consistently callouts are documented.
