Abstract
The problems, errors and issues arising in the process of state examination of mineral resources are highlighted in the article. They can be divided into organizational issues and errors identified by direct hydrocarbon reserves calculation materials consideration. The article considered a number of issues related to the process of registration and document submission for the state examination of hydrocarbon reserves calculation. Also, it considered the main comments during the state examination of the hydrocarbon reserves calculation, such as: seismic materials comments; comments on the hydrocarbon deposit geometrization correctness. It reviews the main problems in the graphic materials design. Today, the experts do not have a single approach in the technical verification requirements of reserves calculation materials. Active work is being carried out to develop technical verification common approaches. In addition, the issues of incentives in the hard-to-recover reserves development are covered.
