oil reserves An oil is any nonpolar chemical substance that is composed primarily of hydrocarbons and is hydrophobic (does not mix with water) & lipophilic (mixes with other oils). Oils are usually flammable and surface active. Most oils are unsaturate ...

giga Giga ( or ) is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of a short-scale billion or long-scale milliard (109 or ). It has the symbol G. ''Giga'' is derived from the Greek word (''gígas''), meaning "giant". The ''Oxford English Di ...

barrels (Gb). * GOR: The ratio of produced gas to produced oil, commonly abbreviated GOR. * Peak year: year of the production plateau/peak. * Peak: maximum production expected (thousand barrels/day). * Discovery: year of discovery. * Capital investment: expected capital cost; FID (Final Investment Decision) - If no FID, then normally no project development contracts can be awarded. For many projects, a FEED stage (Front End Engineering Design) precedes the FID. * Notes: comments about the project (footnotes). * Ref: list of sources.
