http://www.ecolo.org/documents/documents_in_english/oil-forecasts-04.pdf

Column 2   Cumulative production end 2003

Column 3   Depletion levels from the PFC Energy study

Column 4   Indicated total:  Column 2 divided by Column 3 (e.g. Iraq 28 Gb / 0.22 = 127 Gb )

Column 5   Remaining reserves PFC Energy:  Column 4 minus Column 2 (e.g. Iraq 127 Gb – 28 Gb – 99 Gb)

Column 6   ASPO remaining reserves

Column 7   Salameh remaining reserves

Column 8   BP quoted remaining reserves

Column 9   BP “reserves” are total oil discovered
