Water formation volume factor - McCain correlation
Input(s)
T: Temperature \((\mathrm{F})\)
p: Pressure (psi)
Output(s)
\(B_{w}\): Water Formation Volume Factor (McCain Correlation) (bbl/STB)
Formula(s)
\[
\begin{aligned}
B_{w}= & \left(1-1.00010 * 10^{-2}+1.33391 *\left(10^{-4}\right) * T+5.50654 *\left(10^{-7}\right) * T^{2}\right) \\
& *\left(1-1.95301 * 10^{-9} * p * T-1.72834 * 10^{-13} * p^{2} * T-3.58922 * 10^{-7} * p-2.25341 * 10^{-10} * p^{2}\right)
\end{aligned}
