Overview

The long-term price decline of oil & gas is causing companies to increase production efficiency and yield
of wells in order to meet profit expectations. This often requires the introduction of new machinery to
increase capacity and petroleum engineering services to enhance yield efficiency. WellMeka specializes
in machinery rental and oil fields services designed to help wells operate more profitably in light of
continued price declines for the commodity.

Executive Summary
Service Summary

WellMeka provides machinery rental and petroleum sector engineering services to oil fields within Africa.
Its main focus is the procurement, integration, and management of high pressure pumps (600 hp) that
will increase production yield of existing oil fields. The services will be implemented by Kenneth Emeka,
a senior level mechanical engineer that has client facing experience with additional contract help hired
as necessary. The business is seeking financing of $100,000 in order to cover asset purchases over year
one.

Market Summary

Nigeria has emerged as Africa's largest economy, with 2013 GDP estimated at US$ 502 billion. Oil has been
a dominant source of government revenues since the 1970s. Regulatory constraints and security risks
have limited new investment in oil and natural gas, and Nigeria's oil production contracted in 2012 and
2013 (CIA World Factbook, 2013). The total petroleum industry exports in Africa includes 8.4% of the
worlds proven reserves (93 Billion BBLS) that is currently facing tremendous challenges due to the global
price decline of WTI and Brent Crude Oil . The price has declined to 2008 levels with a 100% decrease in
the past year, driving many oil & gas companies into negative profits.

Mission

The mission of WellMeka is to help oil fields to operate profitably in any market environment by
improving the efficiency and production yield of their wells with the most professional team.

6
Three Year Objectives

WellMeka has the following key objectives to reach its financial targets:

Acquire bank financing of $100,000 to cover expenses of initial operations.


Immediately acquire clients in the first month of operations to reach positive cash flows.
Maintain necessary procurement channels for pumps and rental equipment.
Pay back the loan with principle and interest within the agreed period.

Keys to Success

WellMeka recognizes the following keys to success that it should sustain:

Increase the production yield and efficiency of wells for oil fields by agreed rates.
Providing initial analysis, integration, and follow-up management support for pump installation.
Have good relationships with suppliers to receive pricing discounts with continued business.
Leveraging the reputation of Kenneth Emeka and his expertise in mechanical engineering.
Using case studies from previous wells to acquire new business and perform lead generation.

Industry Overview

The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in Nigeria expanded 5.94 percent in the fourth quarter of 2014 over
the same quarter of the previous year. GDP Annual Growth Rate in Nigeria averaged 6.13 percent from
2005 until 2014, reaching an all-time high of 8.60 percent in the fourth quarter of 2010 and a record low
of 3.46 percent in the first quarter of 2012. GDP Annual Growth Rate in Nigeria is reported by the Central
Bank of Nigeria

Market Needs

It is highly likely that Nigerias GDP will continue to grow at 5 6% annually, which will require increased
capacity and efficiency of existing oil fields. New high pressure pump technology will enable wells to
increase their production rates, combined with the experienced analysis and support of an experienced
petroleum engineer. Oil fields consistently need new methods of improving output and maximizing ROI,
which WellMeka is designed to fulfill through its equipment rentals and professional oil fields services.

Market Trends

As the market price of oil declines, production yields must increase in order to sustain overhead and break-
even on fixed production costs. This is a long term trend that for a short period, has been exacerbated
through market manipulation from OPEC (The Economist, 2015). However, prices are slowing due to
increasing substitutes for consumption including natural gas as sustainable energy in major import
markets. As the price of oil continues to decline, oil fields are more pressured to invest in increasing

9
production yields and operating more efficiently. Small investments in new pump technology and general
oil fields services can deliver a more substantial ROI in this atmosphere.

Market Growth

The size of Nigerias economy in 2013 is now put at US $510b. This makes it the largest economy in Africa,
overtaking South Africa by a large margin, and raises its GDP per capita to about US$2,700. The rebasing
puts growth in 2013 at 7.4%. However, until full data is available, we continue to estimate growth on the
previous basis. This shows GDP growth of 6.9% in 2013, a little above the rate in 2012.

With the oil sector subdued by the rise of shale oil and gas abroad, we expect growth to slow to 6.5% this
year, below the budget assumption of 6.8%. We forecast annual growth of 5%5.5% a year in 201518,
as the implementation of reforms slows ahead of elections in February 2015 and lower oil revenues weigh
on activity.

10
Market Segmentation

There are two major areas in the oil industry, upstream and downstream. WellMeka focuses on the
upstream market segment, helping companies to increase their production and efficiency for greater
return on investment. Oil drilling and services may be divided into two areas of drilling and oilfield
services.

Drilling: Drilling companies physically drill and pump oil out of the ground. The drilling industry has always
been classified as highly skilled. The people with the skills and expertise to operate drilling equipment are
in high demand, which means that for an oil company to have these people on staff all the time can cost
a lot. For this reason, most drilling companies are simply contractors who are hired by oil and gas
producers for a specified period of time.

Land Rigs - Drilling depths ranges from 5,000 to 30,000 feet.


Submersible Rigs - Used for ocean, lake and swamp drilling. The bottom part of these rigs are
submerged to the sea's floor and the platform is on top of the water.
Jack-ups - this type of rig has three legs and a triangular platform which is jacked-up above the
highest anticipated waves.
Drill Ships - These look like tankers/ships, but they travel the oceans in search of oil in extremely
deep water.

Oilfield Services - Oilfield service companies assist the drilling companies in setting up oil and gas wells.
In general these companies manufacture, repair and maintain equipment used in oil extraction and
transport. More specifically, these services can include:

Seismic Testing - This involves mapping the geological structure beneath the surface.
Transport Services - Both land and water rigs need to be moved around at some point in time.
Directional Services - Believe it or not, all oil wells are not drilled straight down, some oil
services companies specialize in drilling angled or horizontal holes.

11
Strategy & Implementation Summary

The strategy of WellMeka is to seek positioning against large companies that have higher overhead and
often send an inexperienced analyst to handle many contracts. By choosing WellMeka, clients work
directly with a senior level engineer and receive more competitive proposal prices due to the lower
overhead of WellMeka. The lower cost proposals are particularly attractive in the market with declining
prices for crude oil, which strengthens the competitive edge of WellMeka.
The company creates synergies within the services that it provides to generate profits from the clients
during the entire project life cycle. Fees are charged to clients for initial analysis, implementation, and
rental of the machinery required to fulfill project requirements. Ongoing relationships are then
established for management and continual optimization or auxiliary services provided.

SWOT Analysis

Strengths

Lower overhead than most competitors, enabling more competitive project bids.
Kenneth has extensive experience developing proposals and facing clients.
Most assets are already in place to provide oil fields services.
The business model creates multiple revenue streams and long-term client relationships.
Most projects require ongoing quality evaluation of oil field operations.
Kenneth may build upon his existing client base from Schlumberger and their associates.

Weaknesses

There is currently not a large team in place compared to many competitors.


The company may have less case studies and brand awareness than older firms.
Some assets, such as a high pressure pump are needed, along with financing.
Taking on some debt can increase the financial leverage of the company, but manageably.

Opportunities

The price declines in the market create an immediate opportunity for entering.
The company is capital intensive and highly technical, forming barriers to entry.
Oil outputs are increasing for Nigeria and taking a larger percentage of exports.
The GDP growth rate in Nigeria has been growing very strong and expected to continue.

Threats

While there are plenty of oil companies, much of the oil and gas business is dominated by a
small handful of powerful companies.
The balance of power is shifting toward buyers. Oil is a commodity and one company's oil or oil
drilling services are not that much different. This leads buyers to seek lower prices and better
contract terms.
Long term market shifts may impact the overall profitability of oil wells in the next decade with
increasing substitutes available in natural gas and sustainable energy.

15
Value Proposition

WellMeka is focused around increasing the production rate and efficiency of wells by providing oil fields
services within Nigeria and other African countries. The value proposition is solved by a three part
approach of initial analysis, equipment integration (if necessary), and follow-up integration.

Competitive Comparison

There are several companies providing oil fields services and independent petroleum engineers. However,
most companies only provide oil fields services within one business unit, sharing the overhead required
from the organization as a whole. Moreover, the lack of focus in any one function makes proposals less
powerful and results not as impactful as companies send out entry level analysts compared to working
directly with senior level consultants.

WellMeka is positioned in the market by utilizing its ability to operate with less overhead than larger
consulting firms and more focused than general oil & gas companies. Moreover, Kenneth will work directly
with clients to manage the project and fulfill needs ensuring that the person making the proposal will
be the same one responsible for implementing the project.

Marketing Plan

Marketing efforts will primarily consist of utilizing the existing network of managing partners and
approaching new companies to deliver proposals. Kenneth has experience from his work at Schlumberger
to formulate budgets and provide competitive bids. Relationships with non-competing consulting firms,
construction contractors, and downstream oil companies will also continue to be established so that
referrals may be acquired. The sales and marketing strategy is outlined in more detail in the following
section:

16
Sales & Marketing Strategy

Personal Selling

The personal selling component will entail targeting leads of oil wells within Africa and visiting the
company to provide presentations of case studies, references, and proven added value. The purpose of
the personal selling initiatives are to close appointments set by researching the local target market.
Eventually, an inbound sales representative may be hired in order to help in the lead generation methods.

Strategic Partnerships

The strategic partnerships will focus around establishing relationships with companies that will result in
lead generation. This may be achieved by contacting companies who have regular exposure to oil fields,
but are not competing. For instance, some IT consulting firms may provide services to oil fields and offer
to refer clients for a fee to WellMeka. Other instances of partnership may be formulated with construction
companies, well machinery and equipment manufacturers, and government entities.

Customer Relationship Management

Targeted leads will be tracked through a CRM system such as Salesforce through the sales cycle and their
loyalty monitored. Strategies will be developed to maintain relationships with oil fields, which will mainly
by achieved by successfully achieving results and following up with cross-service opportunities, such as
ongoing management or auxiliary services after the implementation of a high capacity pump.

Website

An information based website will be developed that contains information about WellMeka, the complete
services offered, and overall competitive advantage that it yields. It will also feature the senior team, and
a brief explanation of the methodology approached in the market. The website may also be integrated
with social media channels as the company scales with videos for an increased reputation.

Sales Materials

Proposals will be developed on a project by project basis with a budget based on billable hours and specific
project requirements. Additional distinctive materials will include a quality company profile containing
similar information to the website, presentations for each service line that are professionally designed
that include a list of top clients and case studies of how WellMeka has delivered to the bottom-line based
upon its oil fields services.

17
Financial Forecasts

WellMeka is requesting a $100,000 bank loan in order to mitigate risk from variations of revenue in the
first year of operations. Funds will be applied towards year one operating expenses and new asset
purchases. The company currently has $100,000 of cash on hand and property valued at $125,000
consisting of 1.2 acres. The startup summary includes new asset purchases in year one, which will take
place when the company has adequate cash flows to make the purchase. The loan has been calculated
over an 84 month period with an 11% interest rate and assets are conservatively depreciated over a 5-7
year period with a tax rate of 20%.

Wages & Payroll

Most expenses will be allocated towards development and sales. The employees will be paid competitive
wages so that the company can acquire and retain top talent and compete with large competitors. As the
company grows, it may work in options and bonuses into the salaries, but will focus on a straight full-time
salary with benefits for employees.
