Detailed list of projects for 2016 Terminology Year Startup: year of first oil. put specific date if available. Operator: company undertaking the project. Area: onshore (LAND), offshore (OFF), offshore deep water (ODW), tar sands (TAR). Type: liquid category (i.e. Natural Gas Liquids, Natural gas condensate, Crude oil) Grade: oil quality (light, medium, heavy, sour) or API gravity 2P resvs: 2P (proven + probable) oil reserves in giga barrels (Gb). GOR: The ratio of produced gas to produced oil, commonly abbreviated GOR. Peak year: year of the production plateau/peak. Peak: maximum production expected (thousand barrels/day). Discovery: year of discovery. Capital investment: expected capital cost; FID (Final Investment Decision) - If no FID, then normally no project development contracts can be awarded. For many projects, a FEED stage (Front End Engineering Design) precedes the FID. Notes: comments about the project (footnotes). Ref: list of sources.
