Ratio of cumulative oil production to STOIIP :
{\rm RFO} = \frac{Q^{\uparrow}_O}{V_{\rm STOIIP}} |
For waterless period of production:
{\rm RFO} = \frac{c_t \cdot (p_i - p_e)}{1-s_{wi}} |
where
For isotropic homogenous water propagation and pressure maintenance at initial formation pressure:
{\rm RFO} = E_S \cdot E_D |
where
