SMALL FIELD ASSESSMENT


     Probabilistic estimates of recoverable oil and gas in accumulations
smaller than 1 MMBO or 6 BCFG of gas were made separately. The method
for small field estimation in this assessment is essentially the same
as that used by Mast and others (1989) and described by Root and Attanasi 
(1993). The estimates were based on extrapolations of numbers of fields in 
field-size classes smaller than the play-analysis cutoffs (1 MMBO, 6 BCFG) 
using a log-geometric model. The minimum size estimated was 32,000 barrels 
of oil and 192,000 cubic feet of gas.  Estimates were made for provinces.
