EP screening results
in under 60 seconds.

ProveForecast matches your survey parameters against a curated database of approved NOPSEMA Environmental Plans, returning defensible acoustic exclusion zones and spill risk estimates ready for EP Section 5.3 and 5.4.

Every estimate is drawn from NOPSEMA-approved Environmental Plans with full acoustic modelling reports.

How it works

From parameters to memo in three steps, without the modelling software.

ProveForecast runs a weighted nearest-neighbour search across approved NOPSEMA scenarios, scored on source type, depth, region and activity. No literature review, no modelling licence. Just defensible estimates.

Suitable for early-stage EP preparation and scoping. High-risk or novel surveys still need formal modelling; use ProveForecast to know up-front which ones need it.

What you get

Six capabilities. One screening that stands up to review.

01

Acoustic screening

r160, r180 and r120 Rmax distances at P10, P50 and P90 percentile bands, the exclusion-zone figures your EP Section 5.3 needs, backed by approved analogues.

02

Spill screening

Indicative spill risk estimates against approved substance, volume and region analogues, ready for EP Section 5.4 scoping without a full oil-spill model.

03

Matched analogues

Every estimate comes with a ranked list of the NOPSEMA-approved EPs it matched against, with similarity scores on source type, depth, region and activity.

04

EP memo

Pre-formatted memo with your parameters, percentile estimates, confidence rating and analogue table, drop-in content for the EP document.

05

Confidence rating

Every screening is scored low, medium or high. Know up-front whether the result is fit for EP inclusion or flags the need for formal modelling.

06

Screening history

Every run logged with parameters, analogues, outputs and retrieval date. Shared across the team, exportable for audit, and retained across project lifecycles.

Sample output

This is what a screening looks like when it lands on a reviewer's desk.

A structured, single-page memo a reviewer can read in two minutes - backed by the analogue stack that justifies every number.

Who uses it

Built for EP practitioners, not acoustics specialists.

01EIA consultants

Scope acoustic and spill sections up-front, know which surveys need formal modelling before the client engagement begins.

02Seismic operators

De-risk survey design decisions - array volume, timing, region - against the approved-EP envelope.

03Oil and gas proponents

Portfolio-level screening for exploration programs, without commissioning 50 modelling reports.

04Regulatory reviewers

Cross-check a submitted EP's exclusion zones against the analogue stack in under a minute.

FAQ

The questions your EP team is about to ask.

Is this a replacement for acoustic modelling?+

No. ProveForecast is an indicative screening estimate based on comparable historical scenarios, not a site-specific predictive model. Suitable for early-stage EP preparation and scoping. High-risk or novel surveys will still require formal JASCO / SLR modelling.

Where does the data come from?+

All acoustic modelling results are drawn from Environmental Plans submitted to NOPSEMA and published on the NOPSEMA Environmental Register. Only plans with approved full acoustic modelling reports - primarily JASCO and SLR outputs - are included.

What outputs does ProveForecast produce?+

Each screening returns r160, r180 and r120 Rmax distances at P10 / P50 / P90 percentile bands, a confidence rating (insufficient / low / medium / high), a ranked analogue list with similarity scores, and an HTML memo pre-formatted for EP Section 5.3.

How current is the database?+

Updated periodically as new EPs are approved and published. The current release covers 51 approved scenarios drawn from over 650 Environmental Plans, with continuous expansion planned via automated extraction from new NOPSEMA registrations.

What is the pricing?+

Trial is free - 5 screenings, no credit card. Pro is A$299/mo for unlimited screenings. Enterprise is custom multi-seat with SSO, SLA and dedicated onboarding. All prices AUD, ex GST. Cancel anytime.

Is this EP-compliant?+

ProveForecast outputs are designed to drop directly into EP Section 5.3 (acoustic) and 5.4 (spill). Whether they are accepted by NOPSEMA depends on survey risk - low-risk analogue-dense scenarios are typically accepted on screening; high-risk or novel cases need formal modelling.

Screen your next survey before the kettle boils.

No modelling expertise required. Results in under a minute. First five screenings free, no credit card.
