Table 1. Dynamic viscosity of octane

	NTP: p = 101.325 kpa , T = 20 °C	p = 10,000 kpa , T = 100 °C
$\begin{array}{l}\mu_o\end{array}$	0.51 cp	0.2 cp

In reservoir engineering practice the term "dead oil viscosity" usually means viscosity of the live oil which has been brought to atmospheric pressure until full liberation of gaseous components.
