Estimation of Initial Oil in Place by the Material Balance Method for A Solution Gas Drive Reservoir

  • Chapter
Book cover Reservoir Engineering Techniques Using Fortran

Abstract

The initial oil in place for a solution gas/depletion drive reservoir is estimated, utilizing the generalized material balance equation and performance data. No distinction is made for calculations above or below bubble point conditions. However, for calculations below bubble point, the rock and water compressibility values are not important.
