This study uses the Alberta Energy and Utilities Board (EUB) historical reserve database to show the evolution of proved reserves versus time for oil pools in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin (WCSB), and demonstrates the consistent, long-term growth in reserves associated with the majority of these pools. The advantage of looking back at the performance of these fields is that many of them are very mature, so actual cumulative recovery levels are now very close to the estimates of expected ultimate recovery. We discuss the regulatory, business and technical reasons for these reserve changes and growth trends. Thoughts about the future growth potential of these reservoirs are also presented.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
