Source text - Spanish NOCHE LLUVIOSA EN MEDIO DE UN GRAN DESCAMPADO. UN GRUPO DE UNOS 100 HOMBRES DE LA CIA SE PREPARAN SIGILOSAMENTE PARAPETADOS DETRÁS DE ALGUNOS MONTICULOS, ESPERANDO LA ORDEN PARA ENTRAR EN ACCION. DESDE UN CAMION ENORME CERCANO AL LUGAR, OTROS HOMBRES OBSERVAN MONITORES. EN OTRO SECTOR DEL PARQUE UN MUCHACHO JOVEN CORRE AL TIEMPO QUE LA LLUVIA COMIENZA A SER CADA VEZ MAS FUENTE. MIRA NERVIOSO EN TODAS LAS DIRECCIONES. ALGUNOS HOMBRES SALEN DEL CAMION. UN DE ELLOS ORDENA QUE AVANCEN. TOMAN ARMAS Y COMIENZAN A TROTAR Y CORRER CON LINTERNAS ENCENDIDAS EN MEDIO DE LA OSCURIDAD Y LA LLUVIA. EN LOS MONITORES TIENEN PROBLEMAS CON LAS SENALES DE VIDEO. SE CORTAN LAS COMUNICACIONES. EN LOS HANDY’S SE APAGAN LOS LUCES.
Translation - English It was a rainy night in a big field out in the middle of no
where. A unit of the CIA, 100 men, were preparing secretly
behind the hills. They were waiting for orders to move into
action. Off to the side was a huge truck. Inside were men
watching the monitors. Across the field a young man was
running to beat the rain, which was beginning to come down
heavily. He was looking nervously in all directions as he
ran. Some of the men came out of the truck. One of them
gave orders to start moving. The men went to get their
weapons and began to slowly run with their flashlights held
low in the middle of the darkness and the rain. The monitors
were having a problem receiving the signal. The communication was cut. The walkie talkies went dead.

• Se detectaban en esa época (94) alteraciones en la oclusión y ya se observaban remodelaciones condíleas
• Desde el punto de vista cefalométrico cabe destacar una base craneal posterior corta, un ángulo en silla cerrado con un ángulo articular abierto . Una altura facial posterior disminuída, con ángulo goníaco obtuso. La altura faical anterior se encontraba aumentada por un crecimiento vertical.Además pueden observarse contactos prematuros, alteración del cierre labial en reposo, problemas degenerativos articulares, y asimetría facial.
Translation - English
• During this period they detected modifications in the occlusion and changes in the radial joint. (condileas)
• From the cephalometric viewpoint a short posterior cranial base should be noted, an angle in the closed sella with angle in the open joint. A diminished posterior facial height, an obtuse gonial angle. The anterior facial height was found to be increased by a vertical growth. We could also observe premature contacts, alteration of the labial closure while resting, degenerative joint problems, and an asymmetrical face

Source text - Spanish Calcula los recursos de HC de manera similar al método probabilístico de Montecarlo. En este caso se definen extremos razonables (máximo y mínimo de reservas o parámetros de reservas) entre los cuales se distribuirán las probabilidades de reservas que se espera obtener.
En esta aplicación Hay dos opciones para el ingreso de datos:
1- Valores máximo razonable (P10) y mínimo razonable (P90) ya sea de las reservas totales del prospecto o bien de las EUR por pozo. Este modo se denomina RDI (Reserve Data Input).
2- En este caso los datos a ingresar son los factores o parámetros de reserva (área, espesor neto, etc.) agrupados como es habitual en P10 y P90l. Este modo se denomina PDI (Parameters Data Input).
El resultado en cualquier de las dos aplicaciones es obtener primero la distribución de reservas esperadas y luego sus probabilidades pesadas por riesgo geológico.
Translation - English To generate a log-normal distribution you set reasonable maximum and minimum reserve values or reserve parameters in which there will be distributed probabilities of the reserves that hope to be obtained.
In this application there are two options to input the data:
1- Maximum reasonable values (P10) and minimum reasonable (P90) either the expected reserves of a prospect or the EUR by well. This application is called RDI (Reserve Data Input).
2- In this case the data input are the factors or parameters used to calculate the reserve (area, Net Pay, etc.) grouped as usual in P10 and P90. This method is referred to as PDI (Parameters Data Input).
The result in either of the two applications is to first obtain the expected distribution of reserves and then the risk weighted reserve according to the estimated geological risk for the prospect.
