Reservoir Fluid Property
Introduction:
Hydrocarbon
systems found in petroleum reservoirs are known to display multi-phase behavior
over wide ranges of pressure and temperatures. The most important phases that
occur in petroleum reservoirs are: liquid phase (crude oil or condensates) and
gas (natural gases). This course will explain the hydrocarbon phase behavior
and applications in reservoir and production engineering. Firstly it will
review the principles of phase behavior and illustrate the use of phase diagram
in describing the volumetric behavior of single-component, two-component, and
multi-component system.
It will also
present numerous mathematical and graphical correlations for estimating
physical and critical properties of the undefined petroleum fraction,
evaluation of properties of natural gases and introduces their application in
Darcy’s equation and material balance equation. The course will explore methods
of determining the crude oil physical properties presents the concept and
application of vapor-liquid phase equilibrium, developments and advanced in the
field of empirical cubic equation of state and application in petroleum
engineering. Properly understanding the reservoir fluid properties is very
significant and they are very important steps during the entire life of the oil
and reservoir developments and operations. This course will provide a
comprehensive knowledge and understanding of reservoir fluid properties and
application to reservoir and production engineering to keep excellent reservoir
and production performance as long as possible.
This course
goes beyond the usual description of reservoir fluid properties. The underlying
purpose is to be able to prepare the most accurate possible set of values of
fluid properties for use in other engineering calculations. An understanding of
the advantages of the application of both laboratory data and correlations will
be provided. The course also introduces the candidates to the evolution of
modern computational capabilities that allow engineers to use EOS models to
study phenomena such as the development of miscibility during gas injection,
compositional gradient and the behavior of near-critical hydrocarbon systems.
