| Summary: | a better overall job than the Vvlhitson method. Comparing Ahmed, et al. and Whitson methods showed that both methods and fraction of liquid (FL). Second, a correlation to are better than the new method. The Ahmed, et aL method does comparison, the Ahmed, et aL, and Whitson methods were composition of a retrograde gas-condensate mixture at any correlation has been developed. The new dew point correlation is an improvement of the Kennedy-Nemeth dew point correlation. Contrary to the Kennedy-Nemeth correlation, depletion stage to the composition at its dew point pressure. describe the molar distribution Of C7+ of a gas-condensate dew point correlation is based on composition and the C7+ evaluated using a data base of 52 extended (from C]5+ and up) First, a correlation was developed that relates the fraction and the properties Of C7+ has been developed. For gravity of heptanes plus fraction (SGC7+), gas produced (GP) heptanes plus fraction. in addition, to the composition, it includes the trends for mixture as a function of carbon number (CN), the C6 mole molecular weight of heptanes plus fraction (A4WC7+), specific percent, and Whitson's method had an error of 25.1 percent. properties, molecular weight and specific gravity of the retrograde gascondensate samples. The evaluation of the temperature is not included in the new correlation. The new the relative error, Ahmed, et al. method had an error of 20.6 Third, a new and improved retrograde dew point pressure This correlation is as accurate as previous correlations, and Three correlations for retrograde gases have been developed. |
