Black Oil Model

Pressure depletion in gas-condensate reservoirs create two-phase flow. It is pertinent to understand the behavior of gas-condensate reservoirs as pressure decline in order to develop proper producing strategies that would increase gas and condensate productivity. Eclipse 300 was used to simulate gas-condensate reservoirs, a base case model was created using both black-oil and compositional models. The effects of three Equation of States (EOS) incorporated into the models were analysed and condensate dropout effect on relative permeability was studied. Analysis of various case models showed that, gas production was maintained at 500MMSCF/D for about 18 and 12 months for black-oil and compositional models, respectively. However, the compositional model revealed that condensate production began after a period of two months at 50MSTB/D whereas for the black oil model, condensate production began immediately at 32MSTB/D. Comparison of Peng-Robinson EOS, Soave-Redlich-Kwong EOS and Schmidt Wenzel EOS gave total estimates of condensate production as 19MMSTB, 15MMSTB and 9MMSTB and initial values of gas productivity index as 320, 380 and 560, respectively. The results also showed that as condensate saturation increased, the relative permeability of gas decreased from 1 to 0 while the relative permeability of oil increased from 0.15 to 0.85. The reservoir simulation results showed that compositional model is better than black-oil model in modelling for gas-condensate reservoirs. Optimal production was obtained using 3-parameter Peng-Robinson and Soave-Redlich-Kwong EOS which provide a molar volume shift to prevent an underestimation of liquid density and saturations. Phase behaviour and relative permeability affect the behaviour of gas-condensate reservoirs.
