Why PVT? Because it has a major impact on practically every discipline in the petroleum domain. Petroleum engineers use PVT daily. Even E&P CEOs use and understand basic PVT such as “formation volume factor” and shrinkage. This course focuses on the key concepts related to phase behavior and PVT. In this course, we strive to keep things practical and relevant with as little advanced theory as possible.
