Laboratory Analysis of Reservoir Fluids
Accurate laboratory studies of PVT and
phase-equilibria behavior of reservoir fluids
are necessary
for characterizing these fluids and
evaluating their volumetric performance
at various pressure levels.
There are many laboratory analyses that
can be made on a reservoir fluid sample.
The amount of data desired determines
the number of tests performed in the laboratory.
= density
at any pressure above the saturation pressure
sat = density at the saturation pressure
Vrel = relative volume at the pressure of interest
