Havlena-Odeh Method
Material Balance is
Powerful method to estimate OOIP, OGIP
Estimate aquifer influx
Advantage
Independent from volumetric methods
Used to verify volumetric results
Disadvantage
Require production from reservoir
GF Bgi m NBoi
At the lower pressure p, the gas cap expands, the aquifer expands and
the oil volume changes

MATERIAL BALANCE EQUATION
When trying to fit the expanded fluid volumes back into the reservoir
tank, some fluid volume does not fit in
The superfluous volumes are the produced volumes of oil, gas and water
