    摘要: The invention provides a method for determining phase transition pressure of downhole retrograde condensate. An OBM-contamination value is produced from a time-series of fluorescence values produced by measuring fluorescence emitted from a single-phase flow of OBM-contaminated formation fluid in a downhole cell during a cycle of time. The pressure of fluid in the cell is set at a transition boundary by incrementing drawdown pressure and monitoring the presence or absence of a phase transition. An apparent phase transition pressure value associated with the cycle of time is produced by setting apparent phase transition pressure value equal to cell pressure. This process is repeated for several cycles of time to produce a number of pairs of OBM-contamination value and apparent phase transition pressure value as OBM-contamination decreases over time. The value of phase transition pressure is determined by extrapolating from a representation of apparent phase transition pressure values versus OBM-contamination values.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus to form a well are disclosed. An example method involves determining a reservoir fluid map associated with at least a portion of a reservoir. The first fluid map has first fluid composition data associated therewith. The example method also involves measuring a formation fluid and determining a second fluid composition data based on the measurement. The second fluid composition data is compared with the first fluid composition data associated with the reservoir fluid map, and a well trajectory is adjusted based on the comparison.

    摘要: Methods for optimizing petroleum reservoir analysis and sampling using a real-time component wherein heterogeneities in fluid properties exist. The methods help predict the recovery performance of oil such as, for example, heavy oil, which can be adversely impacted by fluid property gradients present in the reservoir. Additionally, the methods help optimize sampling schedules of the reservoir, which can reduce overall expense and increase sampling efficiency. The methods involve the use of analytical techniques for accurately predicting one or more fluid properties that are not in equilibrium in the reservoir. By evaluating the composition of downhole fluid samples taken from the reservoir using sensitive analytical techniques, an accurate base model of the fluid property of interest can be produced. With the base model in hand, real-time data can be obtained and compared to the base model in order to further define the fluid property of interest in the reservoir.
