The monograph covers all aspects of reserves determination, reviewing methodologies associated with calculating hydrocarbons in place, recovery factors, and production forecasting. This edition has been compiled to address the need for guidelines for the determination and classification of oil and gas reserves.
The estimation, classification, and reporting of oil and gas reserves and related substances has always been a vital part of the oil and gas industry; however, no standardized definitions have been universally accepted across the industry. This issue makes an important contribution toward setting that standard.
The book provides a focus on other influencing factors such as economics, markets, regulations, risk and uncertainty.
