Requirements<br />

c) an interpreted <strong>and</strong> annotated log crosssection<br />

or representative well log(s)<br />

showing the<br />

i) stratigraphic interpretation of the<br />

zone(s) of interest,<br />

Comments<br />

Your application will have fewer processing<br />

delays if you provide a clear picture of your<br />

geological interpretation, including the<br />

potential <strong>for</strong> further pool development.<br />

ii) interpretation of the fluid interfaces<br />

present,<br />

iii) completions <strong>and</strong> treatments to the<br />

wellbore(s), with dates,<br />

iv) cumulative production,<br />

v) finished drilling date <strong>and</strong> kelly<br />

bushing (KB) elevation, <strong>and</strong><br />

vi) scale of the log readings, <strong>and</strong><br />

d) a tabulation of your interpreted net pay,<br />

porosity, <strong>and</strong> water saturation <strong>for</strong> each<br />

well in the pool, along with the cutoffs,<br />

methodology, <strong>for</strong>mulas, <strong>and</strong> constants<br />

used.<br />

2) Your evaluation of the oil <strong>and</strong> gas reserves<br />

<strong>for</strong> the pool, including<br />

a) an estimate of the initial oil volume <strong>and</strong><br />

gas volume in place,<br />

b) an estimate of the oil <strong>and</strong> gas recovery<br />

factors,<br />

c) a description of the methods used in<br />

determining (a) <strong>and</strong> (b) above (e.g.,<br />

material balance, volumetric analysis,<br />

model study, a comparison of analog<br />

pools), <strong>and</strong><br />

If there are sufficient pressure, production,<br />

<strong>and</strong> PVT data, a material balance evaluation<br />

should be done <strong>and</strong> compared to the<br />

volumetric results.<br />

Failure to provide the calculation methods<br />

<strong>and</strong> supporting data will delay processing of<br />

your application.<br />

It is not necessary to provide production plots<br />

<strong>for</strong> the wells, except to illustrate a particular<br />

point or issue (e.g., decline analysis, specific<br />

well per<strong>for</strong>mance issues).<br />

d) the supporting data used in determining<br />

(a) <strong>and</strong> (b) above <strong>and</strong> the sources of the<br />

data (e.g., pressure/volume/temperature<br />

[PVT] properties <strong>and</strong> source, pressure<br />

data <strong>and</strong> source).<br />
