Retrograde gas-condensate reservoirs are characterized by the presence of both liquid and gas phases, and the
temperature of the reservoir lies between the critical temperature and the cricondentherm of the reservoir
fluid. The liquid and gas are in equilibrium with each other and are in contact, the pressure is less than the
saturation pressure at reservoir temperature, and the liquid-to-gas ratio decreases as pressure drops. These
reservoirs are different from "volatile oil" reservoirs, in which the liquid-to-gas ratio increases as pressure drops.

reservoir fluid is in gaseous phase, regardless of pressure.
