What it is
Decision-making under pressure, built for universities & enterprise training.
PetroLogic is a facilitator-led applied simulation designed for university business & engineering courses and corporate operations training. Participants are split into competing teams placed inside a simulated pipeline management scenario. Each round fires operational events — leaks, budget overruns, supply disruptions, and equipment degradation — requiring teams to make critical resource allocation and risk management choices.
The facilitator controls session pacing via a live projector view showing real-time team standings. When all rounds conclude, the debrief view unlocks — surfacing team performance curves, cumulative score breakdowns, risk/asset canvas charts, and exportable PDF reports for structured reflection. Built native bilingual (EN/AR) with LTI 1.3 LMS support for Moodle and Canvas.
- Universities & Business Schools
- Designed for business ethics, operations research, and project management courses (e.g. AUC, Nile University, TNU, GUC, AASTMT).
- Industrial & Energy Academies
- Tailored for technical training centers and corporate academies (e.g. Elsewedy Technical Academy, Ghabbour Foundation) for high-stakes crisis response.
Simulation Physics
Rigorous operational physics & business rules.
Every choice feeds a pure mathematical model governing equipment degradation, logistic incident probability, financial liquidity, and market shocks.
- Physics Engine
Nonlinear Equipment Decay & Overdrive
Equipment Condition (EC) decays based on seasonal weather load, maintenance funding, and production overdrive above 90% capacity. Neglect compounds exponentially over 3-4 rounds.
- Risk Modeling
Logistic Incident Risk (R Index)
Multi-factor risk index combining equipment state (30%), safety condition (30%), crew training (15%), weather (10%), and morale. Incident probability follows a steep logistic curve centered at R=70.
- Financial Engine
Credit Lines, Debt & Receivership
Teams navigate an automatic 50 mEGP credit line and tiered debt financing. Overdrawing past credit limits forces receivership, permanently capping spending by 50% and capping production.
- Insurance & Risk Transfer
Tiered Policies & Blowout Penalties
Basic (70%) and Full (90%) insurance coverages. Catastrophic blowouts incur permanent 3x premium hikes and bar teams from acquiring new Full coverage after a fatality.
- Capital Expansion
Rig Auction & Dual Operations
Mid-campaign auction allowing teams to bid for a second operating rig, scaling production capacity while doubling variable OpEx and maintenance demands.
- Macro Environment
FX Shocks, Audits & Labor Walkouts
Dynamic market events including FX devaluations inflating repair costs by 20%, regulatory safety audits, and round 7 union walkouts for below-market wages.
AI Opponents
Parametric bot archetypes.
Every campaign pairs the player team against three distinct bot archetypes derived from disjoint parametric bands (aggression, discipline, leverage), ensuring unique hands every session.
- High Risk / High Leverage
Reckless Bot
Maximizes production overdrive and cuts maintenance/safety budgets to maximize short-term cash flow. Serves as the ultimate stress test for incident mechanics.
- Benchmark Competitor
Balanced Bot
Maintains disciplined reinvestment in safety and equipment while adjusting production to market demand. Represents steady commercial operation.
- Risk-Averse Preservation
Cautious Bot
Over-indexes on maintenance, safety drills, and full insurance policies while avoiding debt. Demonstrates slow, steady capital preservation.
