Definitions


Fluid means liquids and gases.


Below is the list of the most popular fluid types


AbbreviationDescriptionComponents
GASDry GasGas
BOBlack OilWater, oil wth saturated gas, gas
VO / MBOVolatile Oil (Modified Black Oil)watwer, oil with saturated gas, gas with oil vapor
EOSCompositional fluid (Equation of State)water, up to 16 hydrocarbon components


Goals


Predict multi-compositional multi-phase fluid properties in the thermal and hydrodynamic equilibrium as functions of temperature and pressure.


Objectives


  • Assessing the fluid properties from laboratory data

  • Building a fluid model for a user-defined range of temeratures, pressures and fluid composition:

    • density

    • compressibility

    • formation volume factor

    • viscosity

    • specific heat capacity at constant pressure

    • thermal conductivity

    • cross-phase exchange coefficients
