Interesting to see that Venture have been scrabbling down the back of their reserves "sofa" this morning and announced that D&M reckon their 2P reserves are 243.2mn bbls, which is up 13.6% on their year-end numbers reported less than two months ago (214mn):

I imagine the fact that Centrica took a 23.6% stake only two days after publication of VPC's prelims would have had something to do with it.. ;-)
......which makes one wonder whether other E&Ps are ALSO complacently under-reporting their 2P reserves.
