A basin or subsurface study, which is the first step in petroleum resource evaluation, requires the following types of data: • Reservoir data—pool area, net pay, porosity, water saturation, oil or gas formation volume factor, in-place volume, recoverable oil volume or marketable gas volume, temperature, pressure, density, recovery factors, gas composition, discovery date, and other parameters (refer to Lee et al., 1999, Section 3.1.2). • Well data—surface and bottom well locations; spud and completion dates; well elevation; history of status; formation drill and true depths; lithology; drill stem tests; core, gas, and fluid analyses; and mechanical logs. • Geochemical data—types of source rocks, burial history, and maturation history. • Geophysical data—prospect maps and seismic sections. Well data are essential when we construct structural contour, isopach, lithofacies, porosity, and other types of maps. Geophysical data assist us when we compile number-of-prospect distributions and they provide information for risk analysis.
