Abstract

The estimation of the volume initial in place and the future performance prediction of hydrocarbon reservoir is associated with uncertainties in the geologic, petrophysical, PVT properties and production data. It is therefore important to a precisely characterize the reservoir fluid properties to successfully simulate the reservoir and size of facilities. To accurately describe these properties, the ideal process is to sample the reservoir fluid and perform a laboratory studies on the fluid samples. This study is carried out to evaluate the PVT properties of Akpet GT9 and GT12 reservoirs to determine parameters for oil in place evaluation, understand fluids behaviour during production and numerical simulations at the field scale. The PVT data was validated with Buckley and material balance plot and performed composition analysis for the reservoir fluids composition up to C11+ or C20+ and physical recombination for field gas-oil ratio (GOR) correction to ensure that the fluid sample used in the PVT analyses is representative.
