Board of the State Commission of Ukraine on Mineral Reserves decrees:
To set the following conditions for calculation of hydrocarbon in a field:
•lower limit of the collector’s open porosity – 6,5%; •lower limit of the collector’s gas saturation – 65%; •lower limit of the collector’s permeability – 0.7⋅10-15m2.

Condensate in-places according to Table 2.
Reserves of concomitant useful components in free gas in-places according to Table 3.

Based on the abovementioned tables we can see, that the estimation of hydrocarbon reserves according to New Classification during the calculations and re-calculations of the hydrocarbon reserves provided by the legislation of Ukraine in the process of their geological analysis and commercial production does not cause significant complications and allows to define the reserves of any field not only by sufficiency of geological information, but also by the level of readiness for commercial development.
Reporting on the changes of reserves condition during their use will also be simplified, since the information on the level of preparedness for commercial development will be determined by the reserves class code.

Activities on re-evaluation of hydrocarbon fields reserves being on balance of the state enterprises (SE) were started in 1999 by groups of experts of the state geological survey enterprises (SGSE) (Poltava, Simferopol, Chernigiv, Lviv) specializing in calculation of hydrocarbon reserves together with the scientists of the Ukrainian State Geological Survey Institute
The same activities are performed by production organizations and enterprises: ‘Ukrnafta’ LLC, SC ‘Ukrgazvydobuvannia’, SPE ‘Chornomornaftogaz’ and others.

1. Main contours of hydrocarbon saturation, positions of the gas-water contact, the oil-water contact, the gas-oil contact, the values of the oil recovery ratio, the condensate recovery ratio are not considered.
2. The calculation parameters previously accepted for the evaluation objects (fields) are not considered.
3. Previously approved estimations of reserves (figures) are not rounded off and are not defined without absolute necessity, in case the calculation parameters do not change.
4. The total oil-bearing capacity of the re-evaluation object does not change. The sum of reserves and resources or the fields’ area in ordinary cases should remain constant.

1. Categories of the extent of exploration and reliability of reserves and resources.
2. Position of limits between the categories.
3. The number of reserves and resources of different categories.
4. New category reserves and resources will be assigned the codes of the International codification.
5. Free gas extraction coefficients are not used.
LOGO
6. Commercial significance of total hydrocarbon reserves does not change. In case they were not related to as economic, it is necessary to consider them as such. At the same time it is necessary to consider only those balance reserves, that are being extracted (extractive).
7. According to the new Instruction, the hydrocarbon resources are considered as such resources, the commercial significance of which has not been defined since the reliability of their definition does not allow making a more precise economic- geological evaluation. Accordingly, the prospected in-places cannot undergo a detailed technical and economic assessment.
8. In case the graphic data (area, capacity etc.) as of 01.01.1999 does not coincide with the table data, preference will be given to the table data.

LOGO
9. In case the research and commercial production of the field has been performed, first it is necessary to contour the or 1 category reserves (according to the Instruction) and the extractive reserves will be related to class 111.
10. In case the research and commercial production of the field has not been performed, all the 1 category reserves will be transferred to the 2 category and contoured according to the Instruction. The ‘remainder’ of the reserves area of the ‘old’ 1 category can also be included into the new 2 category, in case it is small. Significant ‘remainder’ of the reserves area of the 1 category relates to the prospective resources.
11. The calculation block of the ‘old’ 2 category can be partially or fully transferred to the new 2 category in case they meet the new requirements, otherwise they will be transferred to the prospective resources.
20
LOGO
12. Prospective resources previously related to 1 or 2 or 3 categories, but transferred to the resources category in the result of the re-evaluation will all be related to the class under the code 333.
13. The class 332 reserves can be distinguished at the fields where no preliminary assessment has been performed and class 111 or 121 or 122 reserves are absent.
14. The residual reserves equal to the difference between the total and extractive reserves will be related to the out-of-balance reserves. In this case the residual reserves of the 1 category block will be related to the code 221 class, and the residual in-places of the 2 category will be related to the code 222 class.
21
LOGO
15. Research and commercial development will be considered and performed in the case more than 5% of field’s extractive reserves are extracted, or in case the formation pressure decrease of more than 5-10% is determined at the field.
16. Collector efficiency level may be determined according to the formation testing data so according to the bore geophysical survey data.
According to the reserves quantity the total and balance (extractive) reserves have insignificant discrepancies according to the Classifications of 1983 and 1997.

On the whole the results of the resources re-evaluation show the insignificant changes:
If total oil reserves according to the Classification of 1983 amounted to 100%, after the re-evaluation they made up 99%, gas reserves - 100% and 104%, condensate reserves – 100% and 104% correspondingly.
At the same time the correlation between the proven and prospected reserves has changed.
As for oil the prospected extractive reserves after the Classification of 1983 amounted to 100%, after the re-evaluation they made up 23%, 100% and 26% correspondingly as for gas, and 100% and 22% as for condensate. The greater part of the reserves was moved to the prospected category and cannot be considered as ready for production.

28
The above-mentioned data shows that the application of the UNFC-adapted mineral products reserves and resources classification in Ukraine will not cause any complications. At the same time, the simultaneous introduction of the gas extraction factors, defined in the result of technological and economic surveys together with the new classification, will lead to noticeable decrease of the gas and condensate extractive reserves of the 111 and 122 classes.
Just as introduction of the requirement in the new classification, according to which the prospected reserves should be proven by their research and commercial production data, will lead to decrease of the prospected reserves of classes 111 and 121.
The results of the resources re-evaluation

As a result of transferring the hydrocarbon reserves on the balance of the State Reserve Register into the taxons of the new classification, significant adjustment of the information on the quantity of the 111 class reserves, which is ready for commercial development, was performed and, correspondingly, the information on the possibility of oil and gas production increasing at the enterprises, which reserves have been re-evaluated.

5. The main principles of reserves conversion, registered in the State balance, into taxons of mineral reserves and resources of State subsoil Fund Classification are the following:
5.1. Balance reserves of natrium-metasomatic geological and industrial type by the content are divided into 2 sorts:
– with metal extraction prime cost less than 40 USD./kg according to marginal content, established for every single deposit;
– with metal extraction prime cost more than 80 USD/kg according to marginal content, established for every single deposit
5.2. Metalliferous deposits of natrium-metasomatic geological and industrial type with metal extraction prime cost more than 80 USD/kg refer to out-of-balance reserves.
5.3. Balance deposit reserves of arenated geological and industrial type are referred to those, which extraction and reworking prime cost is less than 40 USD/kg.
5.4. Outbalance deposit reserves of arenated geological and industrial type are referred to those, which extraction and reworking prime cost more than 40 USD/kg.
LOGO

5.5. Reserves division of natruim-metasomatic and arenated geological and industrial types into balance and out-of-balance, as well as reserves division into 1st and 2nd sorts are conducted according to marginal metal content in balance block, determined in reserves calculation materials by virtue of which reserves are registered in the State balance for every single deposit .
5.6. Extracted balance reserves are determined by multiplying of total reserves in balance block in situ by full-depth extraction ratio, which is defined for every single deposit.
5.7. Deposits reserves, which do not belong to natrium-metasomatic geological and industrial types, refer to those, which economic value is not defined.
5.8. Extracted reserves are not defined for outbalance minerals and for those, which economic value is not defined.
5.9. Balance blocks outline sketches of deposit reserves, quantity and calculated total reserves identification by categories, designed parameters and qualitative minerals factors in balance blocks during the conversion into taxons of mineral reserves and resources of State subsoil Fund Classification are not revised , but are accepted as those, registered in the State balance or approved in reserves calculation materials .

On the whole the results of the resources re-evaluation show the insignificant changes:
If total oil reserves according to the Classification of 1983 amounted to 100%, after the re-evaluation they made up 99%, gas reserves - 100% and 104%, condensate reserves – 100% and 104% correspondingly.
At the same time the correlation between the proven and prospected reserves has changed.
As for oil the prospected extractive reserves after the Classification of 1983 amounted to 100%, after the re-evaluation they made up 23%, 100% and 26% correspondingly as for gas, and 100% and 22% as for condensate. The greater part of the reserves was moved to the prospected category and cannot be considered as ready for production.

The above-mentioned data shows that the application of the UNFC-adapted mineral products reserves and resources classification in Ukraine will not cause any complications. At the same time, the simultaneous introduction of the gas extraction factors, defined in the result of technological and economic surveys together with the new classification, will lead to noticeable decrease of the gas and condensate extractive reserves of the 111 and 122 classes.
Just as introduction of the requirement in the new classification, according to which the prospected reserves should be proven by their research and commercial production data, will lead to decrease of the prospected reserves of classes 111 and 121.

As a result of transferring the hydrocarbon reserves on the balance of the State Reserve Register into the taxons of the new classification, significant adjustment of the information on the quantity of the 111 class reserves, which is ready for commercial development, was performed and, correspondingly, the information on the possibility of oil and gas production increasing at the enterprises, which reserves have been re-evaluated.

2. Deposit and field reserves, which are registered by State Commission of Ukraine on Mineral reserves (SCR) of USSR or by SCR of Ukraine, belong to State Subsoil Fund and were referred by exploration degree to such groups: – productive mines and opencasts; – mines and opencasts under construction; – “A” group reserve fields for mines and opencasts; – “B” group reserve fields for mines and opencasts.
3. State Subsoil Fund contains deposit and field reserves, which are registered by SCR of USSR or by SCR of Ukraine, as well as reserves approved by SCR of USSR or by SCR of Ukraine and referred by their exploration degree to such groups: – explorative fields; – fields perspective for exploration; – free fields close to operating mines; – closed mines and opencasts.

4. Outline sketches of computative blocks and figures, quantity and qualification of calculated reserves by categories, computative parameters and qualitative coal ratio are not reconsidered during the conversion, but are admitted as registered in the Balance.
5. Economic value (balance inventory) of accounted reserves is not to be reconsidered. Accounted balance reserves by Classification of 1983 refer to balance, and outbalance reserves – to outbalance. Nominally balance reserves and reserves of not defined economic value are not pointed out like not distinguished during the approval and not accounted.
The exception are balance and outbalance free fields reserves, which are defined as unfeasible for development, and closed mines reserves, which are referred to reserves with non defined economic values by the new Classification.

5. The main principles of reserves conversion, registered in the State balance, into taxons of mineral reserves and resources of State subsoil Fund Classification are the following:
5.1. Balance reserves of natrium-metasomatic geological and industrial type by the content are divided into 2 sorts:
– with metal extraction prime cost less than 40 USD./kg according to marginal content, established for every single deposit;
– with metal extraction prime cost more than 80 USD/kg according to marginal content, established for every single deposit
5.2. Metalliferous deposits of natrium-metasomatic geological and industrial type with metal extraction prime cost more than 80 USD/kg refer to out-of-balance reserves.
5.3. Balance deposit reserves of arenated geological and industrial type are referred to those, which extraction and reworking prime cost is less than 40 USD/kg.
5.4. Outbalance deposit reserves of arenated geological and industrial type are referred to those, which extraction and reworking prime cost more than 40 USD/kg.
LOGO
41
5.5. Reserves division of natruim-metasomatic and arenated geological and industrial types into balance and out-of-balance, as well as reserves division into 1st and 2nd sorts are conducted according to marginal metal content in balance block, determined in reserves calculation materials by virtue of which reserves are registered in the State balance for every single deposit .
5.6. Extracted balance reserves are determined by multiplying of total reserves in balance block in situ by full-depth extraction ratio, which is defined for every single deposit.
5.7. Deposits reserves, which do not belong to natrium-metasomatic geological and industrial types, refer to those, which economic value is not defined.
5.8. Extracted reserves are not defined for outbalance minerals and for those, which economic value is not defined.
5.9. Balance blocks outline sketches of deposit reserves, quantity and calculated total reserves identification by categories, designed parameters and qualitative minerals factors in balance blocks during the conversion into taxons of mineral reserves and resources of State subsoil Fund Classification are not revised , but are accepted as those, registered in the State balance or approved in reserves calculation materials .
