In this scheme, Overall Prospect Chance is divided into Play Chance and Prospect Specific Chance.

Play Chance is divided into three categories: Reservoir, Seal and Source (or Regional Reservoir, Regional Seal and Regional Source).

Prospect Chance is divided into three categories: Trap, Reservoir and Hydrocarbon Charge.

Each category has key elements that you are required to assign a chance to. This is a multiplicative scheme and the final category chance is the multiplication of all the element chances.

Individual chances are rounded to the nearest 5%.

The overall Prospect Chance is the multiplication of the Play Chance and Prospect Specific Chance:

Overall Prospect Chance = P100 = P(play) x P(prospect specific)

P(play) = P(regional reservoir) x P(regional seal) x P(regional source)

P(prospect specific) = P(trap) x P(reservoir) x P(charge)
