Prospect description

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Prospect Description consists of a single dialog with a number of tabs in which you can describe the geological make-up of the prospect. Each tab corresponds to a different element of the prospect.

The purpose of the screen is to provide a descriptive basis for the 'Prospect Risking'. None of the entries are used quantitatively in the calculations.

Not everybody enters the data in this section, but it is strongly recommended that you do. It helps with the risking, allows a more thorough database for future reference, and is useful for colleagues both present and future. It's quite quick, and mostly it's choices from a drop-down lists.

 

The tabs are:
