The problem, of course, is that one company's actions affect how much oil the other can produce. The following matrix represents how each of these companies view the situation. The terms outside the matrix represent oil output by each firm (low, medium, or high), while the numbers in each cell show the present value of all oil to be extracted by each company, given the 2 extraction policies. The first number represents the value to Company A and the second number represents the value to Company B. As an example, if Company A pumps at a "low" rate, and Company B pumps at a “low” rate, then the value to Company A of all the oil it expects to take over the life of the field is $100 while the value to Company B of its oil is $8.
