Abstract:
A method of classifying a petroleum reservoir using a Reservoir Ranking Analysis (RRA™). RRA™ classification includes establishing reservoir classification metrics for each of the following categories: 1) resource size, 2) recovery potential, and 3) profitability. The reservoir is classified based on at least one metric in the profitability classification category, and also based on at least one metric in one or more of the resource size classification category or the recovery potential classification category. Classification of reservoirs can aid in reservoir management, planning, and development.
