Maximum Efficient Rate definition

Maximum Efficient Rate means the rate at which the maximum ultimate economic petroleum recovery is obtained from a commercial field without excessive rate of decline in reservoir pressure and consistent with good international petroleum industry practice;

Maximum Efficient Rate means the rate at which the maximum ultimate economic petroleum recovery is obtained from a commercial field without excessive rate of decline in reservoir pressure, and consistent with best petroleum industry practice;

Maximum Efficient Rate means the maximum economic rate of production of oil which can be sustained under prudent operations, using sound engineering practices, without loss of ultimate recovery.

Examples of Maximum Efficient Rate in a sentence

• It is the intention of the Parties that the Petroleum resources of the Contract Area should be produced at the optimum rate which is to be fully consistent with the then current economic conditions, and the principles of sound reservoir management according to international Petroleum industry practice, in order to provide for the most economically efficient recovery of Petroleum ("Maximum Efficient Rate").

• The Pilot Development report shall include an evaluation of geology, development, engineering and economics, the Maximum Efficient Rate (MER) and the estimated duration of the production period determined in accordance with the international CBM industry practice.

• The Pilot Development report shall include the evaluation on geology, develop­ment, en­gineering and economics, the Maximum Efficient Rate (MER) and the estimated duration of the production peri­od determined in accordance with the international CBM industry practice.

• If due to a declared national emergency the Government requires an increase in the production rate above the Maximum Efficient Rate, the Contractor shall so increase the production rate for a period of time not to exceed forty-five (45) days in any Calendar Year; provided, however, that in no event shall Contractor ever be required to increase the production rate to a level which in Contractor's opinion could possibly cause damage to the reservoir(s).

• However, in the event the Government requires Contractor to produce Petroleum from the Contract Area at less than the Maximum Efficient Rate Contractor will reduce production, subject to the express condition that such reduction in Petroleum production shall in no event be greater than can be borne entirely from SOCAR's share of Petroleum remaining after satisfying all other SOCAR obligations hereunder.
