At equilibrium, the mole fraction of the components in both phases must sum to
unit
Xi = 1
Yi = 1
nX i
Thus: Xi L VK i
1
Using the equation, the equilibrium composition
and gas and liquid phases can be calculated at any
given pressure.

Yi L 1
The calculation procedure is a trial and error

Material Balance Calculations Of Gas-
condensate Reservoirs
If oil zone is negligible MBE takes the same the same
form as dry gas reservoir under both volumetric and
water drive performance.
The MBE can then be written as:
Pb Gp PV
i i
P Vi We B w Wp Note:
Then the MBE for gas condensate reservoir (also gas reservoirs) becomes:
P Pi Gp

Calculation Procedure:
Obtain field production data .
Convert the stock tank oil production to an equivalent quantity of
vapour and add it to measure gas production to obtain Gp.
