Tatneft Group's total proved reserves of crude oil and condensate at year-end 2016 amounted to 6.2 billion barrels

 

Based on the audit by an independent oil and gas consulting firm Miller & Lents, Ltd. net recoverable oil and gas reserves of Tatneft in accordance with the standards of the Petroleum Resources Management System prepared by the Oil and Gas Reserves Committee of the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE-PRMS) as of 31 December 2016, assuming full economic life of the fields, were:

 

Reserves Category Crude and Condensate Gas

(MBbls) (MMcf)

 

Proved Developed 3 510 967 915 713

Proved Developed 2 224 638 582 855

In 2016 Tatneft Group produced 28.7 million tones or 204.3 million barrels of crude oil, which is equivalent to approximately 558 thousand barrels per day. Therefore, Tatneft's proved oil reserves life at current production rates is over 30 years, and 43 years taking into account the probable reserves (2P).

 

In addition to the audit of reserves, net contingent resources in the company's fields were estimated at year-end 2016:

 

Resources Category Crude and Condensate Gas

(MBbls) (MMcf)

Best Estimate (2С) 884 643 258 163

 

High Estimates (3С) 2 011 602 1 102 521

 

Contingent resources are defined by the SPE-PRMS as those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations by application of development projects not currently considered to be commercially recoverable due to one or more contingencies.
