Abstract:

To understand the difference in domestic and international reserve definition and classification is significant to overseas mergers and acquisitions of Chinese enterprises. This paper gives an introduction to their oilgas reserve definitions and classifications, discusses their applicable conditions, and analyzes the current situation about two classification codes of reserve coming to the same. The international code is based on remaining economic recoverable reserve while the domestic code emphasizes on initial reserve in place. For oil enterprises, the international classification is a base to expand their overseas business and the domestic classification is vital for their middlelong term strategy. This paper presents three suggestions for Chinese oil enterprises to manage oilgas reserve during their globalization.

Key words: oilgas reserve, SPE code, SEC code, initial reserve in place, remaining economic recoverable reserve

摘要：

认识和掌握国内外石油储量的定义和分类的差异是进行海外油气资产并购的前提和基础。介绍国内外油气储量的定义及分类标准，探讨各储量分类标准的适用范围及分类级别的侧重点，并对国内外2套标准在发展过程中趋于一致的现状进行了分析。国际标准主要以剩余经济可采储量为侧重点，而国家标准重点强调原始地质储量。对于石油企业而言，国际分类是海外业务拓展的基础，国内分类是制定企业中长期发展战略的重要依据。最后对中国石油企业国际化进程中的储量管理工作提出了3点建议。
