RESULTS OF THE ASSESSMENT - OIL


     We estimate the undiscovered technically recoverable conventional 
oil resources of the United States to range from 23.5 BBO (billion barrels
of oil) at a 95 percent probability to as much as 39.6 BBO at a 5
percent probability. The mean estimate of undiscovered conventional oil
is 30.3 BBO. Of this amount, approximately 6.4 BBO exist in accumulations 
smaller than 1 MMBO. Estimated conventional oil resources are listed by region
and by province in table 2 and illustrated in figure 9.

Note: Table 2 was subdivided into various Regions:

Table2b contains Regions 3 & 4

Table2c contains Regions 5, 6 & 7
