Pump and pump and number never goes down. Also, what is proven exactly? You&#39;re gonna sell me an asset and give me some multi well propagated petrophysical characteristic model where you&#39;ve assumed permeability of X with theoretical porosity percentage and an irreducible water saturation Y with immovable oil number pulled slightly out of your ass through whatever constants you threw in the model which might or might not have been calibrated to core. I&#39;ll sit on the other side of the table arguing for other constants and metrics to demonstrate a lower producible reserve estimation to get a better price. Which one is correct? Which one is used by governments or regulators? How does technological progress or drilling, completion and production methods move the needle? Fuck knows, it&#39;s just a good number!</html></oembed>
