完善石油资源及储量分类的可能途径

Possible Methods for Improvement of Oil Resources and Reserve Classification

石油资源及储量分类是石油资源经营管理的基础。根据不同需求从不同角度形成了许多分类方案,但时至今日还没有一个方便大多数人使用的分类。为此以历史积淀的若干认识为基础,探讨了完善"通用型"分类的可能途径。分类应具备通用性、连续性、扩展性、精确性4个特性,包含7个基本构成单元,衍生4项指标,不具备这样能力的资源分类,是不合格的分类。指出分类中经济性不等同于商业性,术语定义的差别反映了不同的管理需要。根据有关修订完善分类方法的经验,提出了调整PRMS-2007、UNFC-2009和我国相关分类的设想。

Classification of petroleum resources and reserves is the basis for operation and management of resources. Tomeet the different demands, there are a lot of plans for classification on the basis of different prospective. However, thereis no classification plan that can be acceptable to the majority of people. Therefore, based on the knowledge accumulatedin the past, this article focuses on the possible methods to perfect the “general” classification. Such classification shouldbe characterized with generality, continuity, expandability and accuracy, including seven basic integral units and fourderivative indexes. Classification won’t be qualified if it fails to meet those requirements. According to this article, theeconomic property is not equal to commerciality. The differences in terminological definition reflect the different demandsfor management. Based on the experiences in revision and perfection of classification methods, it proposes to adjust PRMS-2007, UNFC-2009 and China’s related classifications.
