In order to make the average value of each reserve parameter of a set of oil reserves more representative, this paper puts forward the all-factor average method of reserve parameters with crude oil volume and mass constraints. In the first step, the two constraint methods of crude oil volume and mass are adopted to calculate the average value of various parameters of the total items. The weight coefficient when the parameter is averaged is, respectively, the partial derivative of the volume or mass reserve calculation formula with respect to the parameter. Compared with the original calculation results, the average of their parameters all show a shift towards values with a significant share of reserves, especially effective porosity, oil saturation, and crude oil volume factor. The all-factor average method considers a more comprehensive set of factors than the original method. Therefore, each new average parameter should also be much more representative. Since the current reserve specification stipulates that each parameter needs to retain a certain number of decimal places, there inevitably is some carry error between the reserve results calculated by the parameters of the total items and the accumulated reserves of each unit. The second step is to select the optimal average value of each reserve parameter by using the full permutation combination selection method to reduce the carry error. A set of parameters that minimizes the sum of squared relative errors of crude oil volume and mass reserves is selected using the full permutation combination selection method, which is the optimal selection of the average value of the total set of items. Compared with the original method, the full permutation combination selection method can effectively reduce the carry error.
