Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents the progression of crude oil phase behavior modeling within the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve vapor pressure program during the period 2004-2009. Improvements in quality control on phase behavior measurements in 2006 coupled with a growing body of degasification plant operations data have created a solid measurement baseline that has served to inform and significantly improve project understanding on phase behavior of SPR oils. Systematic tuning of the model based on proven practices from the technical literature have shown to reduce model bias and match observed data very well, though this model tuning effort is currently in process at SPR and based on preliminary data. The current report addresses many of the steps that have helped to build a strong baseline of data coupled with sufficient understanding of model features so that calibration is possible.

This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congress authorized the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), operated by the Department of Energy (DOE), to release oil to the market during supply disruptions and protect the U.S. economy from damage. The reserve can store up to 727 million barrels of crude oil, and currently contains enough oil to offset 59 days of U.S. oil imports. GAO answered the following questions: (1) What factors do experts recommend be considered when filling and using the SPR? (2) To what extent can the SPR protect the U.S. economy from damage during oil supply disruptions? (3) Under what circumstances would an SPR larger than its current size be warranted? As part of this study, GAO developed oil supply disruption scenarios, used models to estimate potential economic harm, and convened 13 experts in conjunction with the National Academy of Sciences.

Book excerpt: The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) was created in 1975 to help protect the U.S. economy from oil supply disruptions and it currently holds about 700 million barrels of crude oil. The Energy Policy Act of 2005 required the Department of Energy to expand the Strategic Petroleum Reserve's maximum storage capacity to 1 billion barrels of crude oil. As the Department of Energy (DOE) begins to expand the SPR, past experiences can help inform future efforts to fill the reserve in the most cost-effective manner. Thus, this book will focus on the factors that experts recommend be considered when filling and using the SPR, to what extent the SPR can protect the U.S. economy from damage during oil supply disruptions and under what circumstances would an SPR larger than its current size be warranted. As part of this book, GAO developed oil supply disruption scenarios, used models to estimate potential economic harm, and convened 13 experts in conjunction with the National Academy of Sciences. This is an edited, excerpted and augmented edition of a GAO and U.S. Department of Energy publication.
Download or read book Equation of State Model Development and Compositional Simulation of Enhanced Oil Recovery Using Gas Injection for the West Sak Heavy Oil written by Ganesh G. Morye and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "West Sak oil field, with its very huge reserves of heavy oil, has the potential of supplementing the declining light oil production on the Alaska North Slope. Due to the heavy nature of oil, its phase behavior is very complex. A proper understanding of the phase behavioral changes of the West Sak oil is crucial to design any enhanced oil recovery scheme. Such Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) techniques are essential in the absence of natural drive mechanisms in these reservoirs. For the proper selection of any EOR technique, reservoir simulation studies should prove its viability. Accordingly, a complete phase behavior analysis of the West Sak crude oil was carried out. All the available experimental data was scrutinized and a model equation of state was developed that should describe the phase behavior of West Sak oil. After having done that, reservoir simulation was carried out to study the implications of employing gas injection as an EOR technique for the West Sak reservoir. It was found that a definite increase in heavy oil production can be obtained with proper selection of injectant gas and optimized reservoir operating parameters. A comparative analysis is provided which should help in making such a decision"--Leaf iii.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the properties of a reservoir's fluids and creating a successful model based on lab data and calculation are required for every reservoir engineer in oil and gas today, and with reservoirs becoming more complex, engineers and managers are back to reinforcing the fundamentals. PVT (pressure-volume-temperature) reports are one way to achieve better parameters, and Equations of State and PVT Analysis, Second Edition, helps engineers to fine tune their reservoir problem-solving skills and achieve better modeling and maximum asset development. Designed for training sessions for new and existing engineers, Equations of State and PVT Analysis, Second Edition, will prepare reservoir engineers for complex hydrocarbon and natural gas systems with more sophisticated EOS models, correlations and examples from the hottest locations around the world such as the Gulf of Mexico, North Sea and China, and Q&A at the end of each chapter. Resources are maximized with this must-have reference. - Improve with new material on practical applications, lab analysis, and real-world sampling from wells to gain better understanding of PVT properties for crude and natural gas - Sharpen your reservoir models with added content on how to tune EOS parameters accurately - Solve more unconventional problems with field examples on phase behavior characteristics of shale and heavy oil
