Hydrocarbon pore volume occupied by gas cap

Input(s)

m: Ratio of Initial Gas Cap Gas Reservoir Volume to Initial Reservoir Volume (bbl/bbl)

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

Boi\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{oi}}: Initial Oil Formation Volume Factor (bbl/STB)

Bgi\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{gi}}: Initial Gas Formation Volume Factor (bbl/SCF)(\mathrm{bbl} / \mathrm{SCF})

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

Output(s)

V: Volume of the Gas Cap at Current Pressure (bbl)

Formula(s)

V=m N Boi BgBgi\mathrm{V}=\frac{\mathrm{m} * \mathrm{~N} * \mathrm{~B}_{\mathrm{oi}} * \mathrm{~B}_{\mathrm{g}}}{\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{gi}}}
