ABSTRACT
Compressibility factor (z-factor) values of natural gases are necessary in most
petroleum engineering calculations. The most common sources of z-factor values are
experimental measurement, equations of state method and empirical correlations.
Necessity arises when there is no available experimental data for the required
composition, pressure and temperature conditions. Presented here is a technique to
predict z-factor values of pure substances, natural gases and sour reservoir gases
regardless of the composition of the acid gases at all temperatures and pressures.
Eight equations of state have been thoroughly examined and the results suggest
that the Lawal-Lake-Silberberg (LLS-EOS) equation of state is capable of predicting zfactor values of both pure substances and mixtures of gases. This equation of state
method allows the determination of reduced temperature (TR) and reduced pressure (PR)
instead of the pseudo-reduced temperature (TPR) and pseudo-reduced pressure (PPR) both
for pure substances and mixtures of gases. This EOS is robust and the results are accurate
even if of acid gases present in high concentration. A comparative z-factor prediction
result of the various EOS methods for different gas samples is presented fortifying the
capability of the LLS-EOS method. Another method of predicting z-factor values is
based on the famous Standing-Katz (S-K) Chart (empirical methods). Law of
Corresponding States principle has formed the basis to develop a universal adjustable
parameter. This developed adjustable parameter forms the basis for using LLS-EOS to
be able to use S-K Chart to predict accurate z-factor values of pure substances and
mixtures of gases regardless of the concentration of acid gases. In contrast to the existing
methods derived from other equations of states (EOS methods) and S-K Chart (empirical
methods), this project provides a simple and universal technique for predicting z-factor
values for pure substances, natural gases and sour reservoir gases.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background Information


Compressibility Factor is a measure of the amount the gas deviates from perfect
behavior. It is more commonly called as the gas deviation factor, represented as z (or) Z.
It is a dimensionless quantity and by definition the ratio of the volume actually occupied
by a gas at a given pressure and temperature to the volume it would occupy if it behaved
ideally. Therefore, a value of z = 1 would represent an ideal gas condition.

z=

Va Actual volume of n moles of gas at T and p


=
Vi
Ideal volume of n moles at same T and p

The kinetic theory of gases (basis for Ideal gas law) assumes that there are neither
attractive forces nor repulsive forces between the gas molecules.
In nature, ideal gases do not exist instead real gases exist. All molecules of real gases are
under two kinds of forces:
(a) to move apart from each other because of their constant kinetic motion, and
(b) to come together because of electrical attractive forces between the molecules.
At normal conditions, the molecules are quite far apart and the attractive forces are
negligible and same is the condition at high temperatures because of the greater kinetic
motion. Under these above mentioned conditions, the gas tends to approach ideal
behavior. While, at high pressures, the molecules come very close to each other resulting
in significant attractive forces. These theories qualitatively explain the behavior of nonideal (real) gases and a general representation of the gas law is as follows:
Ideal Gas Law: PV = nRT

(1.1).

Real Gas Law: PV = znRT

(1.2).

1.2 Use of Compressibility Factors in Engineering Analysis


Accurate information of compressibility factor values is necessary in engineering
applications like gas metering, pipeline design, estimating reserves, gas flow rate, and
material balance calculations. Some of the petroleum engineering applications which
involve use of z-factor values of gases are as follows:
1.2.1 Z-Factor for Sour and Acid Gases
If hydrogen sulfide is present in a natural gas mixture it is termed as sour natural
gas. The existing methods of calculating z-factor values when significant amounts of acid
gases like carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) are present in the natural gas
mixtures incur high deviations from the actual values.
1.2.2 Z-Factor for Geologic CO2 Storage
A high content of CO2 gas present in the atmosphere is the major cause for global
warming. A method to capture CO2 from the atmosphere or other sources of CO2
production and be able to store it into abandoned wells is called as CO2 sequestration.
CO2 gas in various concentrations can be required to be stored. Engineering this method
needs z-factor values.
Knowledge of accurate critical z-factor value for pure substances and mixtures is
essential in the determination of accurate z-factor values. Critical z-factor is unique for
each component and system. Figure 1.1 illustrates the capability of various equations-ofstates in predicting critical compressibility factor values.

1.3 Significance of the Project


Todays standard treatment of phase behavior in reservoir simulation is still based
on formation volume factors (FVFs) and surface gas/oil ratios (GORs) which requires
the determination of z-factor and critical properties of mixtures, more importantly. As
more and more, sour environment reservoirs are discovered, it becomes a necessity to
have a simple and robust technique to be able to determine z-factor values accurately.
This project presents methods that allow accurate determination of z-factor values both
for pure components and gas mixtures including significant amounts of non-hydrocarbon
components for all ranges of pressures and temperatures.

1.4 Objective of the Project


This research project provides improved predictive techniques for z-factors based
on the approaches of cubic Equations-of-State (EOS) and empirical correlation of
Standing-Katz5 Chart. Eight EOS that are routinely used in reservoir calculations and
improved pseudocritical property methods for Standing & Katz (SK) Chart are utilized to
match experimentally determined z-factors for pure substances, natural and sour reservoir
gases. The experimental z-factors data for 3100 gas samples, including highly sour gases
(H2S), acid gases (CO2 and N2) and rich gas condensates (with significant amount of C7+)
are used to establish the improved predictive techniques for z-factors.

CHAPTER 2
COMPRESSIBILITY FACTOR PREDICTION TECHNIQUES

2.1 Theoretical Analysis of Gas Law-Based Z-Factors


The magnitude of deviation of real gases from the conditions of the ideal gas law
increases with increasing pressure and temperature and varies widely with the
composition of the gas.
Numerous equations-of-state have been developed in the attempt to correlate the
pressure-temperature-volume variables for real gases with experimental data. In order to
express a more exact relationship between the variables p, V, and T, z-factor must be
introduced into the ideal gas equation to account for the departure of gases from ideality.
This forms the basis for the real gas law and is represented as:
pV = zRT

(1.2).

To account for this deviation factor (z-factor), numerous equations-of-state have


been proposed.

2.2 Experimental Method for Compressibility Factors


Among the existing method of determination of z-factors, experimental
measurement is one of the most accurate methods. It is hard to determine experimentally
measured z-factor values for all compositions of gases at all ranges of pressures and
temperatures. At the same time, this method is expensive and most of the time these
measurements are made at reservoir temperatures only.
2.3 Empirical Correlations Methods
2.3.1 Standing-Katz Compressibility Factor Chart
Standing and Katz5 presented a generalized z-factor chart, which has become an
industry standard for predicting the volumetric behavior of natural gases. To be able to

use this chart, knowledge of reduced temperature and reduced pressure are required,
which further needs determination of critical properties (namely, critical pressure and
critical temperature of the system). Numerous methods have been suggested to predict
pseudocritical properties of the gases as a function of their specific gravity. The point to
be noted here is that these methods predict pseudo critical values which are evidently not
accurate values of the gas mixtures. The existing methods fail to predict accurate values
of pseudocritical values when non-hydrocarbon components are present in significant
amounts. Improved technique to predict critical properties have been discussed in the
Chapter 3 of this thesis report.

2.3.2 Hall-Yarborough Z-Factor Correlation


Hall and Yarborough8 (1973) presented an equation-of-state that accurately
determined the Standing and Katz z-factor chart. This is based on the Starling-Carnahan21
equation-of-state. Best fit mathematical expressions were determined based on the data
taken from Standing and Katz z-factor chart. The mathematical form of the equation is:

0.06125p pr t

Z=
EXP 1.2(1 t )
Y

]
(2.1).

where pPR = pseudo-reduced pressure

Tpc

t = reciprocal of the pseudo-reduced temperature =

Y + Y2 + Y3 Y4

Hall and Yarborough pointed out that the method is not recommended for
application if the pseudo-reduced temperature is less than one.

(2.2).

2.3.3 Wichert-Aziz Z-Factor Correlation


Sour natural gases (containing H2S) and/or CO2 frequently exhibit different
compressibility factor behavior than do sweet natural gases. Wichert and Aziz22 (1972)
developed a calculation procedure to account for these differences. Wichert and Aziz
developed a pseudo-critcal temperature adjustment factor which is a function of the
concentration of CO2 and H2S in the sour gas. This correction factor is then used to adjust
the pseudo-critical temperature and pressure according to the following expressions:
Tpc = Tpc

ppc =

where

(2.3).

p pc Tpc

Tpc + B(1 B)

(2.4).

Tpc = pseudo-critical temperature, oR

ppc = pseudo-critical pressure, psia


Tpc = corrected pseudo-critical temperature, oR
p pc = corrected pseudo-critical pressure, psia

B = mole fraction of H2S in the gas mixture

= pseudo-critical temperature adjustment factor and is defined mathematically


by the following expression

= 120 A 0.9 A 1.9 + 15 B 0.5 B 4.0

(2.5).

where the coefficient A is the sum of the mole fraction of H2S and CO2 in the gas
mixture, or
A = y H 2S + y CO 2

(2.6).

2.3.4 Dranchuk-Abu-Kassem Z-Factor Correlation


Dranchuk and Abu-Kassem23 (1975) proposed an eleven-constant equation-ofstate for calculating the gas compressibility factors. The equation is as follows:


A
A
A
z = A 1 + 2 + 33 + 55 r
Tpr Tpr Tpr

A
A
A
+ A 6 + 7 + 28 2r A 9 7 + 28 5r
Tpr Tpr
Tpr Tpr

2
+ A 10 1 + A 11 2r 3r EXP A 11 2r + 1
Tpr

(2.7).

where r = reduced gas density and is defined by the following relationship:


r =

0.27p pr
zTpr

(2.8).

The constants A1 through A11 were determined by fitting the equation, using nonlinear regression models, to 1,500 points from the Standing and Katz z-factor chart. The
coefficients values:
A1 = 0.3262

A2 = -1.0700

A3 = -0.5339

A4 = 0.01569

A5 = -0.05165

A6 = 0.5475

A7 = -0.7361

A8 = 0.1884

A9 = 0.1056

A10 = 0.6134

A11 = 0.7210

This method is applicable over the ranges

0.2 p pr < 30
1.0 < Tpr 3.0
with an average absolute error of 0.585 percent.

2.3.5 Beggs-Brill Equation for SK Z-Factor Chart


Beggs and Brill25 (1973) proposed a best-fit equation for the Standing and Katz zfactor chart and is as follows:
z=A+

(1 A ) + Cp D

eB

(2.9).

2.3.7 Gopal Best-Fit Equation for SK Z-Factor Chart


Gopals33 correlation for z-factor estimation was developed by dividing the
Standing-Katz chart into two parts by drawing a line isobarically for PR up to 5.4. For
various Tr values, several z-factor values were tabulated isobarically for Pr up to 5.4
because, for any Pr,, the z-factor values show a uniform trend. His objective was to come

up with two noniterative equations, one for Pr less than or equal to 5.4, and the other for
Pr greater than 5.4. To describe the chart accurately, the chart was further divided into 12
parts24. A general equation was developed and is of the form:
Z = Pr (ATr + B ) + CTr + D

(2.12).

The values of constants A, B, C, and D for various combinations of PR and TR are


available in the reference33. For Pr greater than 5.4, harmonic equations are suggested to
be a good fit.

2.4 Corresponding States Prediction Methods


The theory of Corresponding States proposes that all gases will exhibit the same
behavior, e.g. z-factor, when viewed in terms of reduced pressure, reduced volume, and
reduced temperature. Mathematically, this principle can be defined as:
z = z c (p R , TR )

(2.14).

The mathematical derivation of the above expression is as follows:


Real gas law is,

PV = zRT

(2.15).

Multiply and divide the LHS of the above equation by Pc Vc and RHS by zcTc, we get,
Pc Vc

PV
zRT
=
z c Tc
Pc Vc z c Tc

(2.16).

2.5 Equations of State Prediction Methods


Cubic equations of state (EOSs) are simple equations relating pressure, volume,
and temperature (PVT). They accurately describe the volumetric and phase behavior of
pure compounds and mixtures, requiring only critical properties and acentric factor of
each component. The same equation is used to calculate the properties of all phases,
thereby ensuring consistency in reservoir processes that approach critical conditions.
Multiple phase behavior, such as low-temperature CO2 flooding, can be treated with an
EOS, and even water-/hydrocarbon-phase behavior can be predicted accurately with a
cubic EOS.
Volumetric behavior is calculated by solving the simple cubic equation, usually
expressed in terms of z =

pV
,
RT

z 3 + A 2 z + A1z + A 0 = 0

(2.24).

where constants A0, A1, and A2 are functions of pressure, temperature, and phase
composition. Chapter 4 presents a detailed use of equations-of-state method for solving zfactors.

CHAPTER 3
STANDING-KATZ Z-FACTOR CORRELATION
3.1 Standing-Katz Representation of Z-Factor Chart
The z-factor in the Standing and Katz5 (SK) chart is a function of reduced
pressure and temperature. To be able to predict z-factor using the SK chart requires the
appropriate reduced temperature and pressure. Information on the composition of the gas
used to design the Standing-Katz z-factor chart is not provided. A close study and
comparison of the experimental data with that of SK chart z-factor values suggests that
the SK chart was developed based on the natural gas mixture without any significant
amounts of non-hydrocarbon components and C7+ in it.

3.2 Best-Fit Equations for SK Z-Factor Chart

3.3 Mixture Critical Property Prediction Methods


Numerous correlations and methods have been suggested in the past to predict
mixture critical properties. These methods predict pseudocritical properties and do not
represent a correct estimation of the properties for various ranges of composition. In most
cases, each of the correlations are designed for a limited reduced pressure, reduced
temperature and a fixed range of composition of gases (in Chapter 2 is discussed the
procedure to calculate properties of C7+). This calls for a need to have a generalized
method to calculate mixture critical properties and presented here is a generalized method
to calculated pure component and mixture critical properties. The expressions for mixture
critical point (Pc and Tc) are established in the following equations:
Pc =

B c2
am
b 2m [3Z c2 + ( m + m )B c2 + m B c ]

(3.7)

Tc =

Bc
am
2
b m R[3Z c + ( m + m )B c2 + m B c ]

(3.8).

The parameters going into the Equations 3.7 and 3.8 are calculated as shown
below:
The critical equation-of-state parameter Bc is obtained by solving the following cubic
equation:

3 B 3c + 2 B c2 + 1 B c + 0 = 0

(3.9)

where
3 = 8 + 12 m + 6 2m + 3m
2 = 15 + 15 m 27m 3 2m
1 = 6 + 3 m
0 = 1

Similarly, the expression for Zc (critical Z for mixtures) in terms of m and m are shown
in Equations 3.7 and 3.8 is obtained by solving the following cubic equation:
23

3 Z 3c + 2 Z c2 + 1 Z c + 0 = 0

(3.10)

where
3 = 8 + 12 m + 6 2m + 3m
2 = (3 + 12 m + 12 2m + 9 m 9 m m )
1 = 3 m + 6 2m + 6 m 6 m m
0 = ( 2m + m m m )
where the mixture parameters am, bm, m and m are prescribed as
n

a m = x i x j a (T )1i / 2 a (T )1j / 2 a ij

(3.11)

i =1 j=1

b m = x i b1i / 3

(3.13)

i =1 j=1
n

m = x i x j1i / 21j / 2 ij

3.3.5 Improved Theory for Pseudocritical Mixture Parameter


Mixture rules significantly affect the accuracy of mixture property determination.
Weighted average based on mole fraction has been the general rule since Kay but this
method is an approximate method and more rigorous methods are required for accurate
determination of mixture properties. Numerous methods have been proposed but none of
them present a generalized method for critical property prediction with high accuracy.
Most of the methods are either statistical or empirical and therefore are bound by errors.
In this project a method is presented which is based on LLS EOS. This method is capable
of predicting critical properties of mixtures irrespective of the component and its
composition.
Prediction method of binary interaction number is an essential parameter in
mixture critical property determination. The BIN can be function of molecular weights,
acentric factor or product of molecular weight and acentric factor. Care must be taken in
37

applying these rules of predicting BIN with gas mixtures containing very light and heavy
components. Other occasions of concern could be when isomers are present in a gas
mixture. It should be noted that in BIN can be equal to 1 only in case of pure
composition.

3.4 Designed Scaling Parameter for Standing-Katz Z-Factor Chart


In order to extend the use of SK chart to the prediction of z-factors for sour and
acid gases without resorting to the Wichert-Aziz2 correction formula for pseudocritical
pressures and temperatures parameters, a universal scaling parameter has been
established. This scaling parameter is developed by overlaying the experimental z-factor
curves for the same range of pressures and temperatures as that of SK chart and
measuring the deviation from of the SK chart curves. A mathematical quantification of
this deviation for hydrocarbon compounds, non-hydrocarbon compounds, and sour
reservoir gases resulted in a similar modification (or scaling) parameter requirement.
This observation establishes the fact that the SK chart is designed perfectly but most of
the time, it is used wrongly. The error is in the method of calculation of the pseudocritical
pressures and temperatures.
3.4.1 Design Procedure for Scaling Parameter
The scaling parameter for hydrocarbon components is developed based on wide
range of available experimental data and measuring the deviation of SK computational
methods from experimental data. In the design of a scaling parameter, non-hydrocarbon
components that are commonly found in the reservoir gases like nitrogen, hydrogen
sulfide, and carbon dioxide were considered. A wide range of experimental z-factor data
for natural gases containing significant amounts of acid gases, sour gas, and C7+ fraction
were collected and used in this project to develop the scaling parameter.

38

The step-by-step procedure for obtaining the scaling factor is as follows:


1. z SF =

z SK
zc .
z Expt .

2. A regression analysis of the reduced pressure and ZSK scaled z-factor (based on
step 1) is performed to obtain a quadratic expression for scaling factor at each
temperature of the mixture. The equation describing it is Equation 3.78.
3. The coefficients a0, a1 and a2 for each mixture is collected and is subjected to
linear regression analysis.
4. The general expressions for these coefficients are obtained by performing
regression analysis as functions of product of molecular weight and acentric
factor (Mw).
5. The equations describing the final expressions are presented below.
SF = a 0 + a1PR + a 2 PR2

(3.92)

where
a0 =

(3.95)
The prediction results using the scaling factor technique is presented below. More

CHAPTER 4
Z-FACTOR PREDICTION FROM CUBIC
EQUATIONS OF STATE

4.1 Selection of Cubic Equations-of-State


Some phase behavior applications require the use of an equation of state to predict
properties of petroleum reservoir fluids. Since the introduction of the van der Waals4
EOS, many cubic EOSs have been proposed like the Redlich and Kwong13 EOS (RK
EOS) in 1949, the Peng and Robinson12 EOS (PR EOS) in 1976, to name only a few.
Most of these equations retain the original van der Waals repulsive term

RT
,
(V b )

modifying only the denominator in the attractive term. With the advent of simulation
techniques in petroleum engineering, accuracy was the priority but a universal equationof-state method was required as most of the EOSs worked best in a certain range of
pressures and temperatures and compositions.
Most petroleum engineering relied on the PR EOS or a modification of the RK
EOS. Soaves19 modification (SRK EOS) was the simplest and most widely used. A
major drawback of the SRK EOS was the poor liquid density prediction. PR EOS
reported that their EOS predicts better liquid densities than the SRK EOS but not accurate
enough for all ranges of pressures and temperatures including other phases. Many other
proposed equations of states relied on complex temperature functions to represent the
highly nonlinear correction terms for EOS constants.
The critical properties, acentric factor, molecular weight, and binary-interaction
parameters (BIPs) of components in mixture are required for EOS calculations. With the
existing chemical-separation techniques, we usually cannot identify the many hundreds
and thousands of components found in reservoir fluids. Another problem with the

53

existing EOS and other methods of predicting EOS parameters is that they cannot predict
properties of components heavier than approximately C20.
Eight equations of state have been chosen which are commonly used in the
reservoir simulation and calculation purposes in the petroleum industry. Each of these
equations of state has been thoroughly examined in their ability to be able to predict zfactor both for pure substances and gas mixtures (including natural gases and sour natural
gases with significant amounts of C7+). It is observed that the prediction of z-factor is
significantly dependent on the accuracy of the critical properties supplied/predicted.
Based on this observation, LLS29 EOS was observed to be capable of predicting accurate
critical properties for gas mixtures and therefore, more accurate z-factor prediction is
possible with this method for a wide range of pressures and temperatures and for any gas
composition. Hence, LLS EOS method can be adopted as a universal method for z-factor
determination.

4.3 van der Waal Equation of State


van der Waals4 proposed the first cubic EOS in 1873. The van der Waals EOS
gives a simple, qualitatively accurate relation between pressure, temperature, and molar
volume. It can be mathematically expressed as:
p=

RT
a
2
Vb V

(4.15)

where a = attraction parameter


b = repulsion parameter
as compared to the ideal gas law, van der Waals EOS provides two important
improvements. First, the prediction of liquid behavior is more accurate because volume
approaches a limiting value, b, at high pressures,
lim V(p) = b

(4.16)

where be is referred to as the covolume.


a/V2 term in the vdW EOS represents the non-ideal gas behavior and is interpreted as the
attractive component of pressure.
van der Waals also stated that the critical criteria that are used to define the two
EOS constants a and b which are the first and second derivatives of pressure with respect
to volume equal to zero at the critical point of a pure component.

vdW EOS has a fixed zc (=0.375) for all components which is not true and no
temperature function which is a drawback of vdW EOS.
4.4 Redlich-Kwong Equation of State
Redlich and Kwong13 (1948) developed an adjustment in the van der Waals
attractive pressure term (a/V2), which could considerably improve the prediction of the
volumetric and physical properties of the vapor phase. This attractive pressure term has a
temperature dependence term and their equation can be represented as:
p=

RT
a (T )

V b V ( V + b)

(4.22)

where T is the system temperature in oR.


The authors in their development of the equation, noted that as the system
pressure becomes very large, i.e., p , the molar volume V of the substance shrinks to
about 26% of its critical volume regardless of the system temperature. The Equation 2.17
was accordingly constructed to satisfy the following condition:
b = 0.26Vc

(4.23)

Applying the critical point conditions (as expressed by Equation 4.17) on


Equation 4.19, and solving the resulting equations simultaneously, gives
a = a

R 2 Tc2.5
a (TR )
pc

(4.24)

b = b

RTc
pc

(4.25)

where

57

a = 0.42748
b = 0.08664
Equating Equation 4.18 with Equation 4.21 gives
p c Vc = 0.333RTc

(4.26)

The above expression shows that Redlich-Kwong EOS produces a universal critical
compressibility factor (Zc) of 0.333 for all substances.
Replacing the molar volume V in Equation 4.20 with ZRT/p gives
A=a
B=

p

(4.27)

(4.28).

Redlich and Kwong extended the application of their equation to hydrocarbon


liquid or gas mixtures by employing the following mixing rules:

n
a m = x i a i0.5

i =1

(4.29)

b m = x i b i
i =1

(4.30)

The Redlich-Kwong value of zc=1/3 is reasonable for lighter hydrocarbons but is


unsatisfactory for heavier components.

4.5 Soave-Redlich-Kwong Equation of State


A significant development of cubic equations of state was the publication by
Soave19 (1972) of a modification in the evaluation of the parameter a in the attractive
pressure term of the Redlich-Kwong equation of state (Equation 4.22). Soave replaced
the term (a/T0.5) in Equation 4.22 with a more general temperature-dependent term as
demonstrated by (a), to give
p=

RT
a(T)

V b V ( V + b)

(4.31)

58

where is a dimensionless factor which becomes unity at T = Tc. At temperatures


other than critical temperature, the parameter is defined by the following expression:
= (1 + m(1 Tr0.5 )) 2

(4.32)

The parameter m is correlated with the acentric factor, to give

m = 0.480 + 1.574 0.176 2

(4.33)

where is the acentric factor of the substance.


For any pure component, the constants a and b in Equation 4.31 are found by
imposing the classical van der Waals critical point constraints (Equation 4.17), on
Equation 4.31 and solving the resulting equations, to give
R 2 Tc2
a = a
pc
b = b

(4.34)

RTc
pc

(4. 35)

where a and b are the Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK) dimensionless pure component


parameters and have the following values:
a = 0.42747

(4.36)

a = 0.08664

(4.37)

The Z-Form of the Equation 4.31 is:


Z 3 Z 2 + (A B B 2 ) Z AB = 0

(4.38)

where
A=
B=

(a )p
(RT) 2

(4.39)

(4.40)

To use the Equation 4.38 with mixtures, the following mixing rules were proposed by
Soave:

(a )m

[x

x j (a i a j i j )

0 .5

(k

(4.42)

with
A=

B=

(4.43)

(RT ) 2

(4.44)

The parameter kij is an empirically determined correction factor called the binary
interaction coefficient, characterizing the binary formed by component i and component j
in the hydrocarbon mixture.
Modifications of the SRK EOS
Groboski and Daubert37 (1978) proposed a new expression for calculating the
parameter m of Equation 4.32 to improve the pure component vapor pressure predictions
by the SRK EOS. The proposed relationship has the following form:
m = 0.48508 + 1.55171 0.156132

(4.45)

Elliot and Daubert38 (1985) stated that the evaluation of optimal interaction
coefficients of asymmetric mixtures (components with significant difference in chemical
behavior), proposed the following set of expressions for calculating kij,

For N2 systems:
k ij = 0.107089 + 2.9776k ij

For CO2 systems:

( )

k ij = 0.08058 0.77215k ij 1.8407 k ij

For H2S systems:


k ij = 0.07654 + 0.017921k ij

For Methane systems with compounds of 10 or more:

( )

k ij = 0.17985 + 2.6958k ij + 10853 k ij

where, for the above expression:

60

k ij = ( i j ) 2 /(2 i j )

(4.46)

and
i = (a i log e (2)) 0.5 / b i

(4.47).

The major drawback in the SRK EOS is that the critical compressibility factor
takes on the unrealistic universal critical compressibility of 0.333 for all substances.
Consequently, the molar volumes are typically overestimated, i.e., densities are
underestimated.

4.6 Peng-Robinson Equation of State


Peng and Robinson12 (1975) conducted a comprehensive study to evaluate the use
of SRK equation of state for predicting the behavior of naturally occurring hydrocarbon
systems. The authors showed emphasis on the ability of the equation to predict liquid
densities and other fluid properties particularly in the vicinity of the critical region. They
proposed the following expression:
p=

RT
a(T)

V b (V + b) 2 cb 2

(4. 48)

Equation 4.48 can be rewritten as:


RT
a(T)
p=

V b V ( V + b ) + b( V b)

(4.49)

Imposing the classical critical point conditions (Equation 4.17) on Equation 4.48
and solving for the parameters a and b, yields
R 2 Tc2
a = a
pc
b = b

(4.50)

RTc
pc

(4.51)

where

a = 0.45724
b = 0.07780 .

61

This equation predicts a universal critical gas compressibility factor of 0.307 compared to
0.333 for the SRK model. Peng and Robinson also adopted Soaves approach for
calculating the parameter :
= (1 + m(1 TR0.5 )) 2

(4.52)

where m = 0.3746 + 1.5423 0.2699 2

(4.53)

This was later expanded by the investigators (1978) to give the following
relationship:

m = 0.379642 + 1.48503 0.16442 + 0.0166673

(4.54)

Rearranging Equation 2.37 into the compressibility factor form gives


Z 3 + (B 1) Z 2 + (A 3B 2 2B) Z (AB B 2 B 3 ) = 0

(4.55)

The mixing rules for PR EOS are defined as follows:


a m = x i x j a 1i / 2 a 1j / 2 a ij

(4.56)

b m = x i bi

(4.57)

Although PR EOS is another widely used cubic EOSs in petroleum engineering


calculations, it underpredicts saturation pressure of reservoir fluids compared with SRK
EOS.

4.7 Schmidt-Wenzel Equation of State


Schmidt and Wenzel24 (1980) proposed an attractive pressure term that introduces
the acentric factor as a third parameter. The SW EOS has the following form:
p=

RT
a (T )
3
V b V + (1 + 3)bV 3b 2

(4. 58)

with
R 2 Tc2

a = a
pc

(4.59)

62

RT
b = b c
pc

(4.60)

where
a = (1 c (1 c )) 3

(4.61)

b = cc

(4.62)

The c is given by the smallest positive root of the following equation:

(6 + 1)3c + 3 c2 + 3 c 1 = 0

(4. 63)

and
c =

1
3(1 + c )

(4.64)

4.8 Patel-Teja Equation of State


Patel and Teja20 (1982) proposed the following three-parameter cubic equation:
p=

RT
a (T )

V b V2 + (b + c)V bc

(4.65)

In this equation a is a function of temperature, and b and c are constants


characteristic of each component. Equation 4.65 was constrained to satisfy the following
conditions:
p
=0
VTC

(4.66)

2p
=0
VT2C

(4.67)

p c Vc
= c
RTc

(4.68)

Patel and Teja pointed out that the third parameter c in the equation allows the
empirical parameter c to be chosen freely. Application of Equation 4.66 to Equation 4.67
yields:

63

R 2 Tc2
a = a
[1 + m(1 TR0.5 )]2
pc

(4.69)

b = b

RTc
pc

(4.70)

c = c

RTc

(4.71)

c = 1 3 c

(4.72)

a = 3c2 + 3(1 2c ) b + 2b + (1 3c )

(4.73)

where

and b is the smallest positive root of the following equation:


3b + (2 3 c ) 2b + 3 c2 b 3c = 0

(4.74)

Equation 4.74 can be solved for b by using the Newton-Raphson iterative


method with an initial value for b as given by
b = 0.32429Z c 0.002005

(4.75)

For non-polar fluids, the parameters m and, c are related to the acentric factor by
the following relationships:
m = 0.452413 + 1.30982 0.295937 2

(4.76)

c = 0.329032 0.0767992 + 0.0211947 2

(4.77)

In terms of Z, Equation 4.65 can be rearranged to produce


Z3 + (C 1)Z2 + (A 2BC B C B2 )Z + (BC + B2C AB) = 0

(4.78)

where, for mixtures


A=

a mp
(RT )2

(4.79)

B=

(4.80)

C=

(4.81)

with

64

a m = x i x j (a i a j ) 0.5 (1 k ij )

(4.82)

b m = [x i bi ]

(4.83)

cm = [x i ci ]

(4.84)

An improved relationship for undefined components such as C7+, the parameters


m and c was proposed by Willman and Teja40 (1986) in terms of the boiling point Tb and
specific gravity . Therefore, a major drawback of PT EOS is that additional information
is required to be able to determine volumetric properties of composition involving C7+.

4.9 Trebble-Bishnoi-Salim Equation of State


Trebble and Bishnoi26 proposed a four parameter equation of state and it can be
represented as follows:
p=

RT
a (T )
2
V b V + (b + c)V bc d 2

(4.85)

Parameters a and b are temperature dependent while c and d are


independent of temperature. Therefore, new temperature functions for a(T) and b(T)
have been proposed. The value of d was determined for all the components available in
the database along the critical isotherm. d values for the remaining components were
calculated from a linear fit of optimized d values versus the critical volume. The value
of c was directly determined from the experimental value of the critical
compressibility. Once the parameters c and d are set, optimal values of a and b
are then calculated.
This TB EOS offers increased correlational flexibility and allows for significant
improvements in PVT predictions. Trebble and Bishnoi do mention that the quality of an
equation-of-state largely depends on the data used in its preparation

4.10 Transformed Cubic Equations to the LLS EOS Form

P=

V b V + bV b 2

(4.1)

It is the most general form of the EOSs described in this study. This can be
observed by substituting the values of and with numerical constants as described in
the Table 4.1.

(4.96)

Simplifying Equation 4.96 by cross-multiplication, we get


Z 3 + ( B + B)Z 2 + ( B 2 B 2 )Z + B 3 = Z 2 + BZ B 2 AZ + AB

(4.97)

= Z 3 + ( 1 B + B)Z 2 + (A B B 2 B 2 )Z + ( B 3 + B 2 AB) = 0

(4.98)

The reduced form of the real-gas law can be expressed as

Z = Z c f ( PR , TR )

(4.99)

In order to use Equation 4.99 to predict Z-factors of pure substances, natural and
sour gases by utilizing cubic equations of state, the computation of Z-factor from the
reduced form of Equation 4.1 requires composition-dependent critical compressibility
factor as well as mixture critical pressure, temperature and volume for the reduced
parameters (PR, R, TR). The task is accomplished in the next paragraph

68

The reduced compressibility factor (ZR) equation for pure substances can be
derived from Equation 4.1 by dividing the expression of Equation 4.100 by Zc:
=

1 + w Zc 3Zc

In Equations 4.102, the composition-dependent parameters Ac, Bc and Zc are


defined by Equations 4.103-4.105.

69

A c = ( m + m )B c2 + m B c + 3Z c2

4.13 Development of Binary Interaction Parameters


Binary Interaction Coefficient/Number (BIN):
These binary interaction coefficients are used to model the intermolecular
interaction through empirical adjustment of the (a)m term as represented mathematically
by Equation 4.38. They are dependent on the difference in molecular size of components
in a binary system and they are characterized by the following properties, as summarized
by Slot-Petersen39 (1987):

The interaction between hydrocarbon components increases as the relative


difference between their molecular weights increases:
k,j+1 > ki,j

Hydrocarbon components with the same molecular weight have a binary


interaction coefficient of zero:
ki,j = 0

73

The binary interaction coefficient matrix is symmetric:


ki,j = kj,i

CHAPTER 5
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

5.1 Conclusions
This project establishes the need and a solution for a simple and robust technique
of predicting z-factor values for sour reservoir gases and natural reservoir gases.
1. Z-factor from Equations of state has been established. Eight equations-of-state
routinely used in the reservoir simulators have been examined and the most
general EOS has been established.
2. LLS EOS is the most generalized EOS. Every other EOS can be derived from
LLS EOS by substituting for and .
3. Best-fit equations for Standing and Katz Z-Chart have been established. Eight
computational techniques available has been examined and Beggs and Brill
computation technique has been used in the development of the scaling factor.
4. A universal scaling factor has been developed for S-K Z-Chart which is capable
of predicting z-factors of
a. Natural gases
b. Sour reservoir gases
5. Determination of accurate critical parameters of mixtures is an essential step to
obtain accurate z-factor values.
6. Improved technique for mixture critical property has been established. 3100
experimental data from various sources were used in the development of scaling
factor and also used for comparison purposes.

94

5.2 Recommendations
The following points can be based for further studies:
1. design of a generalized chart for predicting the amount of gas produced,
2. improvement in the generalized scaling of z using Standing-Katz chart based on
law of corresponding principles.

APPENDIX C
SCALING FACTOR DEVELOPMENT
AND RESULTS

The following three forms of the scaling parameter were tested and the
exponential form was selected based on its prediction and matching capability:

[ (

Z SF = 1 + k 1 TR

)]

(3.18).

Z SF = TR

(3.19).

Z SF = aEXP(bTR )

(3.20).

The step-by-step procedure for obtaining the scaling factor is as follows:


z SK
zc
z Expt .

1.

z SF =

2.

Plot zSF vs. TR graph; obtain the best fit-curve and the corresponding equation in
the form of

z SF = a e bTR for each pure component. Obtain a and b for each

component.
3.

Plot a vs. Mw graph; obtain the best fit-curve and the corresponding equation of
the form a = coeff1 (M w ) coeff 2 .

4.

Plot b vs. graph; obtain the best fit-curve and the corresponding equation of the
form b = [A 2 + B + C]
where A, B, and C are constants.

5.

The scaling factor expressions for:


a. Pure Components
z SF = a exp(bTR )
where,
a = coeff1 (M w ) coeff 2
b = [A 2 + B + C]

b. Mixtures follow the following Mixing rule:

122

m = x i i0.5
i

n
[ M w ] = x i [ M w ]i0.5
i

where a, b, A, B, and C belong to the above described procedure only.
