A specific case of cross-phase fluid exchange


In BO and MBO PVT models when oil and gas phases rich  reach chemical equilibrium the total mass of  of oil and gas components spreads spread between oil and gas phases according to ambient pressure

.


Given a mixture of oil and gas sharing the same volume under pressure

the total mass of gas component

bodym_G = m_{Gg}(p,T) + m_{Go}(p,T)
