Total sandface flowrate at producing well or wells:
For the volatile oil fluid model the total sandface flowrate is related to surface flowrates of fluid components as:
(1) | q^{\uparrow}_t = B_w \, q^{\uparrow}_W + \frac{B_o - R_v B_g}{1 - R_v R_s} \, q^{\uparrow}_O + \frac{B_g - R_s B_o}{1 - R_v R_s} \, q^{\uparrow}_G |
where
\{ q^{\uparrow}_W, \, q^{\uparrow}_O, \, q^{\uparrow}_G \} | |
\{ B_W, \, B_O, \, B_G \} | formation volume factors between separator and sandface pressure/temperature conditions |
\{ R_s, \, R_v \} | Solution GOR and Vaporized oil ratio at sandface pressure/temperature conditions |
