re: out with it microsoft... abuman Stu, Most fields will experience a period of top production for 6-24 months before entering into their period of natural decline which can be as much as 10-30% per year. (these are very broad figures as every field is different) The problem with Ching is that it went into an approx. 10% per month decline immediately without any period of optimum production. This is a very steep decline curve and would worry any one.
