Hydrocarbon pore volume occupied by evolved solution gas

Input(s)

N\mathrm{N}: Initial Oil in Place (STB)

Np\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{p}}: Cumulative Oil Production (STB)

Rsi\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{si}}: Gas Solubility at Initial Reservoir Pressure (SCF/STB)

Rs\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{s}}: Current Gas Solubility (SCF/STB)

Bg\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{g}}: Current Gas Formation Volume Factor (bbl/SCF)

Rp\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{p}}: Net Cumulative Produced Gas-Oil Ratio (SCF/STB)

Output(s)

V: Volume of the Evolved Gas that Remains in the PV (PV)

Formula(s)

V=(NRsiNpRp(NNp)Rs) Bg\mathrm{V}=\left(\mathrm{N} * \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{si}}-\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{p}} * \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{p}}-\left(\mathrm{N}-\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{p}}\right) * \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{s}}\right) * \mathrm{~B}_{\mathrm{g}}
