PVT Properties Analysis & Gas Reservoir Fluids

Course overview

Why is PVT Analysis crucial? Understanding and predicting the volumetric performance of a gas reservoir as a function of temperature and pressure can be done with the use of PVT properties study. Learning about the PVT characteristics of gas reservoir fluids is crucial.

When conducting tests on subsurface reservoir fluid samples, laboratory analysis is typically used to determine the fluid properties. It is crucial to forecast the gas properties using empirical correlations when experimentally based measured values are not available.

When fluid is produced at the surface, PVT features offer insight into the design of surface production facilities and the gas reservoir depletion process. In order to forecast the reservoir’s performance in the future, a reservoir simulation model is created using these fluid properties.

Participants will gain comprehensive knowledge and understanding of determining the PVT parameters of a gas reservoir fluid by completing this Training Bee training course. With the help of experimental and correlation tools, you will be able to ascertain a gas reservoir fluid’s property through this course. This will help a reservoir engineer better grasp how to handle gas reservoirs during production and better execute the reservoir simulation model for a gas reservoir.
