Author: Markus Hays Nielsen Having a good estimate for the in-situ fluid composition is crucial for modeling and forecasting surface gas and oil rate (GOR) behavior, resulting in enhanced reserves estimation. Moreover, if we have in-situ compositions for all wells, it is possible to generate a compositional map which can be used for optimizing the […]
Author: Mathias Lia Carlsen PVT and fluid characterization are fascinating! Unlike other parameters needed for petroleum engineering calculations, PVT properties have an impact on essentially every discipline in the petroleum domain. Just think about it: whether you do engineering related to reservoir, production, pipeline, facility or process you need PVT. Even geologists need PVT to […]

Author: Bilal Younus There are many commercial PVT packages in the oil and gas industry (e.g. PhazeComp, PVTi, PVTp, PVTSim, WinProp, PVTx). These PVT packages are either used for EOS model development or leverage an existing EOS model for different engineering applications or both. Occasionally, an EOS model is developed in a different (external) PVT […]
Author: Bilal Younus An EOS model requires five properties for each component in a mixture: critical pressure (pc), critical temperature (Tc), acentric factor (ω), molecular weight (M) and volume shift (s). The three first properties define the vapor pressure curve of the component, and the last two properties (parameter) ensures accurate prediction of liquid density […]
Author: Stian Mydland When running compositional reservoir simulations, it is always good practice to quality check that the equation of state (EOS) model developed in a standalone PVT package is exported correctly to the simulator. This is achieved by taking the fluid related output from e.g. CMG GEM, Eclipse 300, or Sensor, and compare it […]
