Evaluation of standard PVT properties from equations of state Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • A variety of correlations for standard PVT properties already exist. However, most of these correlations require as input variables some experimental information such as bubblepoint pressures, API and/or gas gravities or Rss. Equations of state (EOS) provide an alternative method of estimating these properties provided that the reservoir fluid composition is known. Simulated PVT experiments provide simultaneously all liquid and gas properties in a manner that is self consistent.
