Publisher Comments:

Understanding phase behavior of the various fluids present in a petroleum reservoir influences the correct design and economic operation of a petroleum processing plant. This book introduces industry-standard methods for modeling the phase behavior of petroleum reservoir fluids at various stages in the process. It presents characterization methods to determine compositional input for equations of state and explains how to apply them to simulate pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) properties. These methods are useful from high-temperature/high-pressure reservoir conditions down to atmospheric conditions, and deal with flow assurance for gas hydrates, wax, asphaltenes, and scale formation.

Book News Annotation:

Writing for an audience expected to consist of petroleum engineers engaged in reservoir simulation, flow assurance studies, and laboratory work, the authors (both of Calsep A/S, Denmark) describe how oil and gas behave under various natural and industrial conditions and how this behavior can be mathematically modeled. They offer chapters on petroleum reservoir fluids, compositional analyses, pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) experiments, cubic equations of state, C7+ characterization, flash and phase envelope calculations, physical properties, regression to experimental PVT data, transport properties, wax formation, asphaltenes, gas hydrates, compositional variations with depth, minimum miscibility pressure, formation water and hydrate inhibitors, and scale precipitation.
