Source-attributed; not an independent validation

Reported result

Vendor case study gives three decline measures: pilot group, annual production decline improved 7% vs manually optimized wells; full-scale (344 wells), exponential decline rate 10% to 9% (1 percentage point); straight-line decline 19% manual vs 9% auto (10 points). Venting events -62%. All vendor-reported/customer case study.

What this does not establish

Vendor case only; raw data, cohort sizes and validation method are not supplied. Pilot and full-scale metrics should not be combined.

Analyst inference: The workflow is a named, scaled closed-loop deployment. The source supports the use case and reports improvements, but cannot independently establish impact.
