PVT Property Correlations (eBook, ePUB)

Selection and Estimation

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

PVT properties are necessary for reservoir/well performance forecast and optimization. In absence of PVT laboratory measurements, finding the right correlation to estimate accurate PVT properties could be challenging. PVT Property Correlations: Selection and Estimation discusses techniques to properly calculate PVT properties from limited information. This book covers how to prepare PVT properties for dry gases, wet gases, gas condensates, volatile oils, black oils, and low gas-oil ration oils. It also explains the use of artificial neural network models in generating PVT properties. It presents numerous examples to explain step-by-step procedures in using techniques designed to deliver the most accurate PVT properties from correlations. Complimentary to this book is PVT correlation calculator software. Many of the techniques discussed in this book are available with the software. This book shows the importance of PVT data, provides practical tools to calculate PVT properties, and helps engineers select PVT correlations so they can model, optimize, and forecast their assets.

• Understand how to prepare PVT data in absence of laboratory reports for all fluid types
• Become equipped with a comprehensive list of PVT correlations and their applicability ranges
• Learn about ANN models and their applications in providing PVT data
• Become proficient in selecting best correlations and improving correlations results
