Acceptable reliability level

Input(s)

NN: Number of Exploration Wells (dimensionless)

P(x)P_{(x)}: Binomial Probability of Discovering X\mathrm{X} number of Fields with Total N\mathrm{N} number of Exploration Wells (fraction)

PFP_{F}: Probability of having X\mathrm{X} number of fields that averagely includes minimum F\mathrm{F} barrels of Oil (fraction)

Output(s)

LRel L_{\text {Rel }}: Acceptable Reliability Level (dimensionless)

Formula(s)

LRel=X=1X=NP(x)PF\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{Rel}}=\sum_{\mathrm{X}=1}^{\mathrm{X}=\mathrm{N}} \mathrm{P}_{(\mathrm{x})} \cdot \mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{F}}
