Title: The prediction of final proved reserves in complex fault block oil fields
Abstract: For the complex fault block oil fields, the prediction of final proved reserves is a big problem in petroleum progressive development. This article taking JS oil field as an example summed up the features of reserve change and reserve increase of complex fault block oil fields, put forward the connotation of the final proved reserves and reached a conclusion that final proved reserves equal to the sum of the proved reserves, that part of the possible reserves, which can become proved ones, and that part of probable reserves, which maybe proved ones. A technique for predicting final proven reserves in complex fault block oilfields has been developed, which takes the trap, experience extrapolation and oilfields scale array as the dominant prediction methods. The method has been used for predicting the final proved reserves of ZW oil field.
