Energy software packages can generate state and federal reports required by auditing government agencies such as the Department of Energy, Environmental Protection Agency or Department of Defense. Sorting profitability by site, activity, crew, geologist/engineer and customer is also a helpful tool in energy accounting systems. Software dispatch systems can help with scheduling and recording load pickups while providing information such as directions and gate combinations.

When evaluating these systems, buyers should consider the following:

-   Can it analyze the financial status of the company’s partners?
    
-   Can it track lease status and integrate it with accounting?
    
-   Do the features fit the size of the company, as in multiple currencies?
    
-   Can it generate the appropriate reporting documents for auditors?
    

It’s possible to start answering these questions _before_ you contact any vendors. Simply check out the product profiles on this website to read real user reviews, get system overviews and watch demo videos for dozens of energy accounting systems.

## What are the deployment options for oil and gas accounting software?

Energy accounting software can be implemented in one of two ways:

-   As a best-of-breed application
    
-   As part of an integrated solution that packages together accounting tools, in addition to other functionalities, such as oil and gas production reporting, gas balancing and/or human resources applications
    

Your ultimate selection will depend on your needs and budget. For example, integrated systems are often more robust and expensive than best-of-breed solutions, so they may not be ideal for smaller companies who only really need core accounting tools.

Pricing for oil and gas accounting software varies from vendor to vendor and it may be influenced by the number of modules a company needs or the amount of users that need to access the solution. Some software licenses require an upfront lump sum (also known as a perpetual license), while others use subscription-based pricing models.

Buyers must choose from cloud-based or on-premise solutions. Cloud software is typically hosted remotely on the vendor’s servers, so it’s especially appealing to smaller businesses with tighter budgets. On-premise systems are more traditional. These are hosted on-site, on the company’s own servers.
