More details about the topic:
SPE PRMS: Why it exists and how to use it
The SPE PRMS has been adopted by the oil and gas industry as a way of managing petroleum resources from conception to exhaustion.
This talk looks at the history of estimates of quantities of petroleum, starting from Prospective Resources, through Contingent Resources to Reserves.
We discuss the key role of a project to develop the petroleum resources and the criteria to be satisfied by the project if reserves are to be booked.
A simple example is used and, starting from Exploration through Appraisal, Development and Production, it is shown how estimates of resources and, later, reserves are made using both deterministic and probabilistic methods.
