The longevity and searchworthiness of petroleum resources

Richard G. Fowler

Energy, 1977, vol. 2, issue 2, 189-195

Abstract: Modifications are presented to the Hubbert and Zapp methods for estimation of the supply of randomly located resources and estimates have been made by these revised methods of the current state of the search problem. A new energy based attack on the plowback ratio is proposed which offers more meaningful predictive possibilities than the current purely economic approach.
