V voprosu o novoj klassifikacii zapasov i resursov uglevodorodov

Goal of the elaboration of Oil and Natural Gas Reserves and Resources New Classification is the integration into international market economics on the basis of rapprochement to the international standards. New Russian reserves Classification foresees only a profitable part as the definite reserves class. Increase of proved reserves at the expense of EOR application, of more dense boring and putting into production inefficient wells is possible only after confirmation of the economic efficiency of corresponding investigative project. Elaborated later, the Systematic recommendation for new classification application is contradictory to the main essence of new Classification. It foresees the reserves grouping solely after level of geological study and industrial development. Such approach is in contradiction with international standards.
