{\rm DRDF}(t) = \frac{{\rm V_{recovered \ reserves}}(t)}{{\rm V_{recoverable \ reserves}}}


It always ranges

and is related to Recovery Factor (RF) as:

{\rm DRDF}(t) = \frac{[\rm RF}(t)}{EUR}

where EUR is Estimated Ultimate Recovery.


The Depletion Factor concept splits naturally into two categories: 

Oil Recovery Factor (RFO)Gas Recovery Factor (RFG)
