Play-based assessment of hydrocarbon resources in University Lands reservoirs, Permian Basin, West Texas | 2003 | Oil and gas resources on University Lands, 2.1 million acres in 19 West Texas counties, constitute a major asset of the University of Texas System. The original oil in place (OOIP) of the 102 major University Lands oil reservoirs is calculated to be 7,520 MMbbl. |

Oil and gas resources remaining in the Permian basin: targets for additional hydrocarbon recovery | 1989 | Reservoirs in the Permian Basin of Texas are estimated to have contained a total of 105.7 billion barrels (Bbbl) of oil at discovery. As of January 1985, these reservoirs had produced a cumulative volume of 25.3 Bbbl of oil, and proved reserves were calculated at 5.9 Bbbl. |

Controls on reservoir heterogeneity in Permian shallow-water-platform carbonate reservoirs, Permian Basin: implications for improved recovery | 1995 | Shallow-water-platform carbonate reservoirs of Permian age have accounted for more than half of the oil production in the Permian Basin, one of the largest oil-producing regions in the United States. |

Integrated characterization of Permian Basin reservoirs, university lands, West Texas: targeting the remaining resource for advanced oil recovery | 1991 | Unrecovered mobile oil is oil that is movable at reservoir conditions but is prevented from migrating to existing we1 l bores because of geologic complexities or heterogeneities. |
