Lecture Problems Solution1

The document contains 3 gas reservoir problems: 1) A gas reservoir at 6000 psia and 160°F originally containing 1 MM ft3 of gas. The pressure will be 500 psia when half the original gas is produced, assuming constant volume. 2) Two connected gas tanks initially at 50 psia/50°F and 25 psia/50°F equalize at 35 psia. The volume of the second tank is calculated to be 75 ft3. 3) Gas was contracted at $10/MCF at 14.4 psia and 80°F. The equivalent price at 15.025 psia and 60°F is $10.833/MCF.

Problem (1)

1- A dry gas reservoir is initially at an average pressure of 6000 psia and


temperature of 160°F. The gas has a specific gravity of 065. What will the
average reservoir pressure be when one-half of the original gas (in SCF) has
been produced? Assume the volume occupied by the gas in the reservoir
remains constant. If the reservoir originally contained 1 MM ft3 of reservoir
gas, how much gas has been produced at a final reservoir pressure of 500
psia.

2- A 50 cu ft tank contains gas at 50 psia and 50°F. It is connected to another


tank that contains gas at 25 psia and 50°F. When the valve between the two
is opened. the pressure equalizes at 35 psia at 50°F. What is the volume of
the second tank?
Problem (2)
Tank P, Psia V, ft3 T, oF

No information given to calculate Z- Factor (SG or
PV = nRT composition), Assume ideal Gas behavior

P1 V1 = n1 R T1 n1 = P: psia

Problem (3)

3- Gas was contracted at $10 per MCF at contract conditions of 14.4 psia and
80°F What is the equivalent price at a legal temperature of 60°F and pressure
of 15.025 psia?
Problem (3)
Case P, Psia V, ft3 T, oF
1 14.4 1000 80
2 15.025 1000 60

PV = nRT
P1 V1 = n1 R T1 n1 = = = 2.485 lb-mole
P2 V2 = n2 R T2 n2 = = 2.692 lb-mole
Eq. Price 2 = Eq.Price 1 * =$10 x 2.692/2.485 = $10.833 per MCF
