OIL-FIELD-DEVELOPMENT INVESTMENT-OPPORTUNITY RISK MODEL Introduction What is the Question? Categories and Variables Field-Development Risk Model Equations Populating the Model with Data Results from Model Execution So, So What? USING CHANCE OF FAILURE AND RISK-WEIGHTED VALUES TO REFLECT THE EFFECT OF "SOFT" ISSUES ON THE VALUE OF AN OPPORTUNITY Introduction Accurate Estimates of Value are Essential Types of Chance of Failure How to Express and use Chance of Failure Risk-Weighted Values and the Value of a Portfolio Element Value of a Portfolio Composed of Dissimilar Elements So, So What? PRODUCTION-SHARING AGREEMENT RISK MODEL Introduction What is the Question? Building the Contributing-Factor Diagram Risk Model Equations Populating the Model with Technical Data Chances of Abject Failure Populating the Model with Financial Data Results from the Model So, So What? SCHEDULING AND OPTIMIZATION RISK MODEL Introduction The Problem Design of the Model and the Contributing-factor Diagram The Risk Model Code Results from Model Execution So, So What? DECISION/OPTION-SELECTION RISK MODEL Introduction The Current Situation The Problem Results from Model Execution So, So What? RISK PROCESS TO IDENTIFY BUSINESS DRIVERS, MAXIMIZE VALUE, AND DETERMINE THE VALUE OF POTENTIAL EXPENDITURES Introduction The Problem The Risk/Uncertainty Model Populating the Model with Data Results from Model Execution Determining Business Drivers and Maximizing Value Determining the Value of New Information/Services So, So What? SUMMARY Other Applications It is Mostly the Process - Not the Technology Accomplishment of Vision Generates Real Returns Exploration Example Maintenance/Construction Example BUILDING A CONSENSUS MODEL What is the Question? - Most of the Time and Effort Consensus Model Group Dynamics Write it Down Sort it Out Group Dynamics Again Units Overarching Categories BUILDING A CONTRIBUTING-FACTOR DIAGRAM The Contributing-Factor Diagram - Getting Started Identify and Define Variables Ask the Right Question Double-Dipping Double-Dipping and Counting the Chickens Fixing the Double-Dipping and Counting of Chickens Problem CFD-Building Example Short List of Hints for Building a CFD MONTE CARLO ANALYSIS A Bit of History For What is it Good? Simple Monte Carlo Example How Many Random Comparisons are Enough? Output from Monte Carlo Analysis - The Frequency and Cumulative Frequency Plots Interpreting Cumulative Frequency Plots Combining Monte Carlo-Output Curves DECISIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS Decisions Just what is a Distribution? Distribution - How to Approach Them Symmetrical Distributions Skewed Distribution Spike Distributions Flat Distributions Truncated Distributions Discrete Distributions Bimodal Distributions Reading Data from a File Peakedness "Specific" Distribution Types CHANCE OF FAILURE Chance of Failue - What it It? Failure of a Risk Component Chance of Failure that does no affect and Input Distribution Incorporating chance of Failure in a Plot of Cumulative Frequency Another Reason for chance of Failure The "Inserting 0s Work Around" COF and Multiple Output Variables TIME SERIES ANALYSIS AND DEPENDENCE Introduction to Time-Series Analysis and Dependence Time-Series Analysis - Why?
