What problem does it solve? Before running an asset-value (NPV) screening, engineers need a clean, documented set of economic assumptions—gas and oil prices, discount rate, currency, inflation, and tax regime. This Skill normalizes those inputs and flags inconsistencies such as out-of-band discount rates, unrecognized tax regimes, or nominal terms with zero inflation, so downstream NPV work starts from a sane basis. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Economy-basis assembly: Normalizes prices, discount rate, currency, inflation, and tax regime into a single validated result object. - Sanity checks: Range-checks the discount rate against an indicative 6%-12% public band and validates the tax regime against a small public name set (generic, norwegian-ncs, uk, us, none). - Consistency flags: Raises warnings for zero-revenue inputs or nominal terms with zero inflation, returning an overall ok/watch verdict. - Use Case: An engineer preparing a Norwegian NCS concept screening supplies gas price 0.30 per Sm3, oil price 70 USD/bbl, and an 8% discount rate, and receives a normalized basis with a discount_rate_flag and basis_warning before running the validated NeqSim field-economics workflow. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to assemble and sanity-check an economy basis with a gas price of 0.30 per Sm3, oil price of 70 USD per barrel, an 8 percent discount rate in USD, and the norwegian-ncs tax regime.
