Tutorial 2 Reservoir Engineering (EG501L)

Question 1

A natural gas with a specific gravity of 0.75 has a gas formation volume factor of
0.00529 ft3/scf at the prevailing reservoir pressure and temperature. Calculate the
density of the gas.

Question 2

A hydrocarbon gas system has the following composition:

Component Mole Fraction


C1 0.83
C2 0.06
C3 0.03
n-C4 0.02
n-C5 0.02
C6 0.01
C7+ 0.03

The heptanes-plus fraction is characterized by a molecular weight and specific gravity of


161 and 0.81, respectively.

a. Using Sutton’s methodology, calculate the density of the gas 2000 psia and 150°F.

b. Recalculate the gas density without adjusting the pseudo-critical properties.

Question 3

A crude oil system exists at an initial reservoir pressure of 4500 psia and 85°F. The
bubble-point pressure is estimated at 2109 psia. The oil properties at the bubble-point
pressure are as follows:

Bob =1.406 bbl/STB Rsb=692 scf/STB

Ɣg =0.876 API=41.9°

Calculate:

a. Oil density at the bubble-point pressure


b. Oil density at 4,500 psia
c. Bo at 4500 psia
