Houston: Advanced PVT Simulation
September 2 - 3, 2009
Course description
Learn how to develop EoS models for petroleum reservoir fluids. The course will take you through QC of fluid compositions, strategies and options for regression to PVT data, EOR, handling of mud contaminated fluids, and handling of production from multiple wells with co-mingled streams. The concepts of EoS modeling will be presented in lectures and exemplified through hands-on exercises in the use of PVTsim.
Course outline
The following topics will be covered
- QC of fluid compositions with components up to C36+
- Fluid characterization and component lumping
- Cleaning of Mud contaminated fluids with regression
- Regression to PVT data including gas injection data
- Swelling, slim tube and MMP simulations
- Same pseudo regression for multiple fluids
- Viscosity tuning
- Export of compositional and property tables to external simulators
- PVT simulation study workflow and tips
Who Should Participate
Engineers engaged in EoS modeling for reservoir, pipeline, and/or facility simulations. Participants must be familiar with the basics of fluid handling, cubic equations of state and PVT simulation. Experience in operation of PVTsim or other PVT simulator is a further requirement.
