Abstract
Accurate knowledge of pure hydrocarbon and natural gas viscosity is essential for reliable reservoir characterization and simulation as well as economic design of natural gas processing and transport units. The most trustable sources of pure hydrocarbon and natural gas viscosity values are laboratory experiments. When there is no available experimental data for the required composition, pressure, and temperature conditions, the use of predictive methods becomes important. In this communication, a novel approach was proposed to develop for prediction of viscosity of pure hydrocarbons as well as gas mixtures containing heavy hydrocarbon components and impurities such as carbon dioxide,...
