Abstract
Gas-condensate reservoirs exhibit complex phase and flow behaviors due to the appearance of condensate banking in the near well region. A good understanding of the effect of the changing composition on the flow and phase behavior properties of these reservoirs is essential for carrying out accurate forecasts of the performance of gas-condensate reservoirs using numerical simulators.This report presents an experimental phase and flow behavior analysis for a synthetic two-component gas-condensate system. The object of this work is to confirm the composition change during condensate dropout, hence to investigate the effect of composition change on gas-condensate fluid properties, such as gas relative permeability and condensate saturation.
