Estimates of Undiscovered, Economically Recoverable Oil and Gas Resources for the Outer Continental Shelf Revised as of January 1990

摘要

The Minerals Management Service (MMS) has revised its estimates of the undiscovered, economically recoverable oil and gas resources for the Federal Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) prepared for the 1987 National Oil and Gas Resource Assessment. New geological and geophysical data warranted such an update. The results of this update are presented in a set of tables included in this report. This reassessment increased the entire OCS undiscovered risked mean resource estimate by 10 percent.
