Although a key decision criterion for this is often value, another important criterion is uncertainty reduction, or confidence in the interpretation of critical uncertainties. So how can teams understand project uncertainties and the effects of different information or appraisal...

The most widely accepted interpretation of these data has led to the conclusion that the physical limits to world oil production may lie...

... Abstract The efficiency of exploration is an intuitive concept to the explorationist. Factors that obviously contribute to efficiency include good geological interpretation, good geophysical measurements, and good interpretation of geophysical measurements. The size and type of structures...
