The mass of fluid per unit volume:
\rho = \frac{m}{V} |
where
The total fluid density of multiphase fluid is given by following equation:
(1) | \rho = \sum_\alpha s_\alpha \, \rho_\alpha |
where
Density of popular petroleum fluids at SPE Standard Conditions (STP):
Fluid | Typical range (g/cc) |
---|---|
Natural Gas | 0.007 – 0.30 |
Gas Condensate | 0.200 – 0.40 |
Oil | 0.400 – 1.12 |
Water | 1.000 – 1.15 |
