    Abstract: Upper and lower asphaltene weight fractions of fluid proximate ends of an oil column are obtained based on measured OD. Upper and lower maltene partial densities are obtained based on the asphaltene weight fractions. A maltene partial density distribution is obtained utilizing the maltene partial densities and a predetermined diffusion model. An asphaltene partial density distribution is obtained based on the maltene partial density distribution and an estimated mass density gradient. An asphaltene weight percentage is obtained based on the asphaltene partial density distribution and the mass density gradient. The asphaltene weight percentage distribution is converted to an OD distribution utilizing a predetermined correlation. An optimization then reduces differences between the OD distribution and the measured OD data to within a predetermined range to refine a biodegradation time of the predetermined diffusion model. A viscosity distribution may be obtained based on the optimized OD distribution.

    Abstract: A methodology for IPTT (interval pressure transient testing) design which allows estimation of the reliability of the transient tests. A normally distributed random noise is superimposed on analytical pressure profile computed for a given formation, PVT, and gauge metrology. The IPTT success in a particular environment is estimated based on the theoretical pressure derivative and noise superimposed pressure derivative. This approach is repeated for a range of rock, fluid properties, and practical limits, for a successful IPTT.

    Abstract: In some embodiments, a process can include obtaining a first formation fluid sample using a sample-line of a focused fluid sampling system and obtaining a second formation fluid sample using a guard-line of the focused fluid sampling system. The process can also include measuring a first optical density spectrum of the first formation fluid sample and measuring a second optical density spectrum of the second formation fluid sample. The process can also include decolorizing the first and second optical density spectrums to produce a decolorized first spectrum and a decolorized second spectrum, respectively. The process can also include normalizing the first and second decolorized spectrums to provide a first normalized spectrum and a second normalized spectrum. The process can also include determining a difference between the first and the second normalized spectrums to provide a sampling difference and adjusting a fluid sampling operation based on the sampling difference.
