Operations and Maintenance Expense Analysis - now free on HData!

Operations & Maintenance Expense analysis is now available to everyone on HData, for free.

Every regulated energy company reports its O&M expenses and subcategories. For the regulated energy industry, managing and minimizing O&M expenses is crucial. If you work with energy regulatory information, understanding O&M expenses is your best place to start.

Using our O&M Expense drivers, you can assess the operations and maintenance cost of all regulated energy companies: electric utilities, midstream oil pipelines, and interstate gas pipelines.

Start with high-level analysis using industry-standard Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Then move to the Comparison Table, which provides a line-by-line comparison of any regulated company’s O&M against any other.

For the first time, every HData user can now access our O&M: Electric, O&M: Oil, and O&M: Gas drivers. And it's free.
