Oil in place for undersaturated oil reservoirs without fluid injection

Input(s)

\(\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{p}}\): Produced Oil (STB)

\(B_{\mathrm{o}}\): Oil Formation Volume Factor (rb/STB)

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

\(\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{wi}}\): Initial Water Saturation (fraction)

\(\mathrm{c}_{\mathrm{w}}\): Water Compressibility (1/psi)

\(\mathrm{c}_{\mathrm{f}}\): Formation Compressibility \((1 / \mathrm{psi})\)

\(\Delta \mathrm{P}\): Pressure Differential (psi)

Output(s)

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

Formula(s)

\[ \mathrm{N}=\frac{\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{p}} * \mathrm{~B}_{\mathrm{o}}}{\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{o}}-\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{oi}}+\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{oi}} *\left(\frac{\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{wi}} * \mathrm{c}_{\mathrm{w}}+\mathrm{c}_{\mathrm{f}}}{1-\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{wi}}}\right) * \Delta \mathrm{P}} \]
