DENVER, CO--(Marketwired - Dec 1, 2014) - P2 Energy Solutions ("P2"), a leader in software and data solutions for the upstream oil and gas industry, today announced it has completed the acquisition of Merrick Systems, Inc. ("Merrick"), a leader in production management and field operations software. Many mutual customers already recognize the benefits from using both systems in their day-to-day operations, and will benefit from the closer integration of these capabilities.

"The addition of the Merrick solutions to P2's portfolio creates opportunity for customers who want to optimize production by more tightly connecting field operations with the back office," said P2 CEO Charles Goodman. "Driving greater value through real-time, data-driven operations is a top priority for our customers, particularly given the dynamics of today's upstream oil and gas environment."
