Formula 7.40
Total new production area estimation expected to be discovered
Input(s)
$K_{i \_ \text {add }}$: Number of Fields estimated to be discovered with additional number of Exploration Wells (dimensionless)
$A_{i}$: otal Area of Discovered Fields in Field Class "i" (acres)
Output(s)
$A_{i \_ \text {add }}$: Total Area Estimated to be discovered in Selected Field Class (acres)
Formula(s)
$$ \mathrm{A}_{\mathrm{i} \_ \text {add }}=\sum\left(\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{i} \_ \text {add }}\right) \cdot\left(\mathrm{A}_{\mathrm{i}}\right) $$
Note: All Formulas need to be applied in each Field Class separately.
