A note on Reserves and Resources
Reserves
are “indentified
accumulations that can be extracted profitably with existing technology under present economic conditions”. (McCabe, p. 2113)
−
estimates depend on views about existing technology and current
economic conditions
−
most additions to reserves come from existing fields –
investing in extensions, enhanced recovery
Resources
are reserves plus all the accumulations of a fossil fuel that may eventually become available –
inherently vague definition
−
Judgments about which resources are potentially economic are very subjective
−
the warehouse concept applies to resources as well as reserves
“Historically perceptions of the amount of fossil fuel resources have had a profound impact on many political and investment decisions. In retrospect many of these perceptions have been ill founded.”
(McCabe, p.2119)

Global Gas Supply Issues
Increasing cost of supply
−
extraction (e.g. drilling deeper, further offshore)
−
transportation (more remote sources)
−
capital cost inflation
Developing non-conventional sources
−
technology challenges
Willingness of producers to export
Geo-politics of long distance transportation
