Simulation of Retrograde Behavior of Hydrocarbons around the Production Wells in Gas-Condensate Reservoirs, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Pishvaie, Mahmmod Reza (Supervisor) ; Bozorgmehry, Ramin (Supervisor)
Abstract
The hydrocarbon reservoirs with temperature between critical temperature and cricondentherm are called gas condensate reservoirs. The hydrocarbon fluids of gas condensate reservoirs have retrograde behavior, i.e. when the pressure falls below the dewpoint, condensate liquid appears. This phenomenon usually occurs around the production wells, because pressure is typically the lowest in the near-well region.This so-called condensate blockage leads to reduced gas production because the condensate causes a decrease in gas relative permeability.
This phenomenon is difficult to capture in the standard compositional simulators, because well blocks are typically too large. The condensate...
