DE0430 : Pressure-Volume-Temperature (PVT) & Equation of State (EOS) Characterization

This practical and highly-interactive course
includes various practical sessions and
exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our
state-of-the-art simulators.
This course is designed to provide participants with a
detailed and up-to-date overview of Advanced
Pressure-Volume-Temperature (PVT) and Equation
of State (EOS) Characterization. It covers the PVT
analysis and its importance in reservoir engineering
and applications in the oil and gas industry; the
phase behavior of hydrocarbon systems; the
techniques for hydrocarbon sample collection and
experimental methods used in PVT analysis; the
fluid properties in reservoir conditions, equations of
state (EOS) basics concepts and the common EOS
models; parameterizing EOS models to match
experimental PVT data; and the advanced methods
for tuning EOS parameters to improve model
accuracy using regression techniques.
Further, the course will also discuss the mixing rules
in EOS models and their application to multicomponent
hydrocarbon systems; the volume
translation and density calculations; using EOS
models to visualize phase behavior; constructing
phase diagrams for reservoir fluids; and analyzing
compositional gradients and reservoir fluid grading
using PVT data.
During this interactive course, participants will learn the asphaltene precipitation and
wax formation including PVT modeling of complex fluids and thermodynamic models
for hydrate formation; the EOS for unconventional reservoirs, software tools for PVT
and EOS analysis; the challenges and future research directions in PVT analysis
and EOS characterization; the PVT and EOS data in field development planning and
decision-making processes; integrating PVT data with reservoir management
strategies; the impact of PVT analysis on production forecasting; and utilizing PVT
analysis in the evaluation and acquisition of oil and gas assets.
