## Description

This MCP provides specialized tools to estimate the total cost of Plugging and Abandonment (P&A) for oil and gas wells. It calculates rig daily rates using `get_rig_daily_rate`, estimates material requirements with `estimate_material_costs`, determines mechanical intervention needs via `calculate_intervention_work`, and aggregates all components into a final estimate using `compute_total_pa_cost`. It accounts for location type, well depth, complexity, and regulatory standards like US_EPA or EU_NORSOK.

## Tools

### estimate_material_costs
Estimate material costs

### get_rig_daily_rate
Get daily rig rate

### calculate_intervention_work
Calculate intervention work

### compute_total_pa_cost
Compute total P&A cost

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the estimated rig rate for a high-complexity offshore well?
```

**Response:** 
```
The estimated daily rate for a high-complexity offshore rig is $250,000 per day.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the total P&A cost for a 5000ft well with medium complexity and US_EPA standards.
```

**Response:** 
```
The total estimated P&A cost for the 5000ft well is $1,250,000, including a 15% contingency.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much will mechanical cleaning cost for a deep well?
```

**Response:** 
```
The estimated cost for mechanical intervention and cleaning is $450,000.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What factors influence the rig cost?**
The rig cost is determined by the `get_rig_daily_rate` tool, which considers whether the well is onshore or offshore and the complexity level of the operation.

**How are material costs calculated?**
Material costs are estimated using `estimate_material_costs`, which uses well depth, complexity, and the specific regulatory standard (e.g., US_EPA) to determine the required cement and fluids.

**Can I include a contingency buffer in the estimate?**
Yes, the `compute_total_pa_cost` tool allows you to specify a contingency percentage to account for unforeseen geological or mechanical issues.
