would be produced until the water cut reaches 96 percent of produced<br />
fluids. These same methods were used in determining future<br />
production rates.<br />
The estimates of reserves <strong>and</strong> ultimate recovery are sensitive to<br />
the degree to which the empirical analysis method continues to<br />
duplicate performance. This is, of course, controlled by the<br />
applicability of the method <strong>and</strong> the proper selection of reservoir<br />
<strong>and</strong> fluid parameters in each of the reservoir segments. The latter<br />
is difficult 1n dirty s<strong>and</strong>-shale sequences. Relatively firm,production<br />
decline trends in the important reservoir segments have not<br />
yet been established. Also, development in the newer eastern<br />
extension of the field is not entirely complete.<br />
