This 3-day course provides an overview of PVT (pressure, volume, temperature) analysis which relates production data from the reservoir to surface conditions. The course covers reservoir fluid property determination, phase behavior analysis, bottomhole and surface sampling techniques, sample validation and recombination, selection of appropriate PVT analyses including flash separation and reservoir condition analyses. Physical property measurements of density, composition and viscosity are also reviewed. The course is intended for reservoir engineers, fluids analysts and chemists using reservoir fluids data to improve production efficiency.

Basics of PVT Analysis (3 days)
By: Lucian Pirlea Business context: PVT (pressure, volume temperature) analysis enables the reservoir engineer to relate the production at surface to the changes in the reservoir by providing the following data: Reservoir Fluids Properties Phase Behavior Relationship Between Bottomhole and Surface Parameters
Content of the program:
1. General overview - Scope - Reservoir fluids properties - Phase Behavior 2. Sampling - Well conditioning - Bottomhole sampling - Separator Sampling 3.

Who should attend:
The course is intended for petroleum engineers, fluids analysts and chemists that are using reservoir fluids data.
Learning methods and tools:
The 3-day course will cover typical PVT analysis performed on black oil and gas condensate wells. Upon the completion of the course, the participants will have a better understanding of PVT analysis and the usefulness of the fluids data in improving the overall efficiency of the oil and gas production.
