# Abandonment Provision Calculator AI Agent Connect

> Abandonment Provision Calculator MCP handles the heavy lifting for offshore decommissioning financial modeling. Your AI client uses this tool to determine total abandonment liabilities, calculate necessary annual funding, and find the present value of future obligations. It includes industry-standard cost multipliers for fixed platforms, FPSOs, and subsea assets to keep your projections grounded in reality.

## Description

You can now run complex decommissioning financial models directly through your AI client. This MCP gives your agent the specific math required to handle offshore energy asset liabilities. Instead of manually calculating inflation-adjusted provisions or discounting future costs, you just provide the asset details and let the tool handle the arithmetic. 

It works by pulling from industry-standard cost benchmarks for different facility types, including fixed platforms and FPSOs. This ensures your models aren't just theoretical, but are based on recognized cost multipliers. You can use it to figure out the total cost to retire an asset, how much cash you need to set aside every year to cover that cost, or the lump sum needed today to meet those future obligations. It turns your AI into a specialized financial analyst for the oil and gas sector.

## Tools

### calculate_present_value
This tool finds the current lump sum needed to cover a future abandonment obligation. It handles the discounting math for you.

### calculate_total_liability
This tool determines the total estimated cost to decommission assets at the end of their lifecycle.

### get_facility_cost_benchmarks
This tool provides industry-standard cost multipliers and base costs for various facility types like FPSOs or subsea assets.

### calculate_annual_provision
This tool calculates the specific yearly amount you must set aside to meet your total liability.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the total abandonment liability for 10 wells on a fixed platform in 500 meters of water?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total estimated abandonment liability for 10 wells on a fixed platform at a depth of 500 meters is $150,000,000.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much should I set aside annually for a $50M liability over 20 years with 3% inflation and 5% discount rate?
```

**Response:** 
```
The required annual contribution is $1,850,000.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the present value of a $100M obligation due in 15 years with a 4% discount rate?
```

**Response:** 
```
The present value of the $100,000,000 obligation is $55,526,450.
```

## Capabilities

### Liability Estimation
Your agent calculates the total cost of decommissioning assets at the end of their life.

### Annual Funding Math
The tool determines exactly how much cash to allocate each year to meet future obligations.

### Present Value Calculation
Your AI client finds the current lump sum required to fund future decommissioning costs.

### Cost Benchmarking
The MCP provides standard cost multipliers for fixed platforms, FPSOs, and subsea equipment.

## Use Cases

### Annual Provisioning
Calculate the yearly cash set-asides required to meet future decommissioning obligations.

### Asset Valuation
Determine the impact of future abandonment liabilities on the current value of an offshore asset.

### Budget Planning
Use facility cost benchmarks to build realistic decommissioning budgets for new projects.

### Lump Sum Funding
Find the exact amount of capital needed today to satisfy a future decommissioning requirement.

## Benefits

- Reduces manual math errors in decommissioning financial models.
- Uses industry-standard multipliers for more accurate facility cost projections.
- Provides instant answers to complex present value and annual provision questions.

## How It Works

Connect your AI client to Vinkius and start running financial models immediately.

1. Connect your preferred MCP-compatible client like Claude or Cursor to Vinkius.
2. Ask your AI agent to perform a specific decommissioning calculation.
3. The agent calls the necessary tool from this MCP to run the math.
4. Your agent receives the calculated data and presents the result to you.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What kind of assets can I model with this MCP?**
The MCP includes cost benchmarks for fixed platforms, FPSOs, and subsea assets.

**Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?**
Yes, you can connect this MCP to any MCP-compatible client including Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.

**How does the tool handle inflation and discount rates?**
The tools for annual provision and present value calculations incorporate these variables to provide accurate financial projections.

**Do I need to host the MCP myself?**
No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and start using the tools.

**What is the purpose of the facility cost benchmarks?**
They provide standard multipliers and base costs to ensure your liability models align with industry standards.

**How do I calculate the total cost of decommissioning?**
You can use the `calculate_total_liability` tool by providing the well count, the facility type, and the water depth.

**Can I account for inflation in my calculations?**
Yes, the `calculate_annual_provision` tool allows you to input an expected inflation rate to ensure your annual contributions cover future cost increases.

**What is the difference between total liability and present value?**
Total liability is the estimated future cost, while `calculate_present_value` tells you how much money you need to set aside today to meet that future obligation based on a discount rate.
