The Procedure
Determine Tpc and Ppc
Given gas composition
Given gas gravity & compositions of
impurities
Evaluate z-factor
Practical Applications
Sequester CO2 in depleted reservoirs
Design gas storage equipment (cylinders,
tanks)
Transportation

(PETE 323)
Exercise in Class
Determine the density of an acid gas at
3,500 psia and 220 oF
The gas contains 5% CO2 and 15% H2S and
has a specific gravity of 1.4
Questions to think
What errors could you have in your
predictions if the corrections for
impurities are neglected?
How good are these new correlations
compared with the existing ones?
