The article is a revision of the existing Wikipedia article on Oil reserves, which has been updated (2022) and simplified, but broadened to consolidate oil & gas reserves as well as resource estimates. A summary of other changes:

  • Country specific references have been removed, as well as maps and ranking tables, which by definition change (weekly) with changing circumstances (exceptions and ephemera create burdens and complexity)
  • sub headings Proven reserves, Unproven reserves, Strategic petroleum reserves and Estimation techniques are little changed from the original article, which will be merged with this draft to preserve the history
  • Redirects will include Oil Reserves, Gas reserves, Hydrocarbon reserves, Reserves accounting, Oil Resources, Gas resources, Hydrocarbon resources, Petroleum reserves, Petroleum resources
