Routine PVT Studies normally cover the following laboratory tests :

Black oil PVT studies[/vc_column_text][cz_gap height=”20px”]

  • Rigorous validity assessment of submitted downhole or surface samples.
  • Selection of the most suitable sample(s) for PVT study.
  • Reservoir fluid composition.
  • Physical recombination (if separator samples).
  • Constant Composition Expansion (CCE).
  • Differential Liberation (DL).
  • Viscosity measurements.
  • Separator tests.
[cz_gap height=”30px”][vc_column_text]Gas Condensate PVT studies[/vc_column_text][cz_gap height=”20px”]
  • Constant Composition Expansion (CCE)
  • Constant Volume Depletion (CVD)
  • it is important to carry out the validation of the samples before performing the reservoir study.
  • The validation process depends on the type of sample collected, i.e. whether they are bottom hole, wellhead or separator samples.
[cz_gap height=”30px”][vc_column_text]EOR Studies[/vc_column_text][cz_gap height=”20px”]
  • Minimum Miscibility Pressure (MMP)
  • Minimum Miscibility Composition (MMC)
  • Swelling tests single contact gas injection
  • Determination of mixture saturation pressure and volume
