Description

Designed for you, if you are...

• A practicing reservoir engineer and/or researcher dealing with phase behaviour, miscible displacement and compositional / complex black-oil reservoir simulation
• A process or chemical engineer

How we build your confidence

• Laboratory experiments and correlations to obtain PVT data will be discussed and illustrated using practical examples
• You can bring your own PVT reports to discuss with the trainer
• Fluid characterisation with an EOS using commercial PC-based programs will be performed

The benefits from attending

• Make decisions about sampling and PVT laboratory procedures required
• Design and use PVT laboratory reports, including those for gas injection studies
• Develop EOS models
• Generate appropriate black-oil PVT tables for reservoir simulation

Topics

• Phase behavior introduction & basics
• Traditional and modified black-oil PVT properties
• Fluid sampling. Why and when collect samples? What is a representative sample? Sampling methods. Quality checks of samples.
• Laboratory PVT experiments - how they are conducted, for what purpose and how they should be applied
• Using correlations and laboratory data to obtain PVT properties
• Fluid characterisation with an equation of state (EOS)
• Heptanes - plus (C7+) characterisation
• Tuning an EOS by regression
• Pseudoizing to reduce the number of components
• Generating modified black-oil properties
