Different estimates may or may not include oil shale, mined oil sands or natural gas liquids.

The area now generates almost six million b/pd of oil and 24 billion cubic feet of natural gas." Perryman said the region's capacity is demonstrated by the rising estimates of its reserves.
However, under current rules, oil can only be pumped from the reserve at a maximum rate of “4.4 million barrels per day for up to 90 days,” according to the Department of Energy. Student loan ...
Countries by natural gas proven reserves (2014), based on data from The World Factbook. Natural gas is a widely available fossil fuel with estimated 850 000 km 3 in recoverable reserves and at least that much more using enhanced methods to release shale gas. Improvements in technology and wide exploration led to a major increase in recoverable ...

Natural gas is frequently associated with oil directly and gas reserves are commonly quoted in barrels of oil equivalent (BOE). Consequently, both oil and gas reserves, as well as resource estimates, follow the same reporting guidelines, and are referred to collectively hereinafter as oil & gas. [1]
