The estimated productive life of a proved reservoir based upon the economic limit of the reservoir producing hydrocarbons in paying quantities assuming certain price and cost parameters. Reserve life is calculated by diving the total proved reserves for the reservoir by production volumes from the reservoir for the previous 12 months.
A calculation in years of the longevity of an asset, determined by dividing the reserves by total annual production or forecast production for the coming year.
the remaining life of our reserves, measured in years, by dividing the quantity of reserves by the total production of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids during the calendar year.
