    摘要: Methods and systems for determining an estimated reservoir property using a determined desorption stage are disclosed. The method includes determining a fluid property and composition of a first fluid sample obtained from a reservoir, determining a measured relative volume of gas components and isotope ratios of gas components of the sample, and determining an equation of state. The method also includes obtaining a second and third sample at two later times, determining a composition, a measured relative volume of gas components, and isotope ratios of gas components of the later samples, and calibrating the equation of state utilizing the fluid composition and measured relative volume of gas components. The method further includes predicting a relative volume of gas components from the equation of state, determining a desorption stage, determining a critical pressure, an extent of desorption and a quantity of produced desorbed gas and determining the estimated reservoir property.

    摘要: A method to improve production of condensate is disclosed. The method includes obtaining a condensate fluids sample from a gas condensate reservoir, generating, from a laboratory pressure, volume and temperature (PVT) experiment of the condensate fluids sample, a liquid dropout curve, performing simulation of the laboratory PVT experiment based on Equations of State (EoS) of the condensate to generate a simulated liquid dropout curve, where the EoS is adjusted to match the simulated liquid dropout curve and the liquid dropout curve generated by the laboratory PVT experiment, performing, based on the adjusted EoS, a reservoir simulation of the gas condensate reservoir under injection of flue gas, where the reservoir simulation models a condensate banking phenomenon to generate an optimal flue gas ratio that maximizes a measure of condensate production, and facilitating, based on the optimal flue gas ratio, the production of the condensate in the gas condensate reservoir.
