Abstract

From both a government and an oil exploration company perspective certain basic prerequisites are necessary for initiating and maintaining rational and orderly oil and natural gas exploration and development programs. These prerequisities are: 1.(1) realistic government policy augmented by effective petroleum legislation to initiate and promote adequate exploration and development programs;2.(2) a reasonable expectation for success in attaining the goals of all participating parties;3.(3) available “risk capital” to invest in these programs; and4.(4) sound exploration judgment and adequate technology possessed by those responsible for conducting the programs.
