Abstract It is well-known that petroleum fluid properties (also known as Pressure-Temperature-Volume -PVT) is needed for many petroleum engineering and other interdisciplinary engineering applications. Especially in recent years, multi-disciplinary acquisition of such data and its use became more and more important as seamless and efficient integration became a necessity. Fluid properties for every step of the value chain are extremely important for project evaluation, safety and decision making along with geological and geophysical information. One of the key points about the reservoir fluids is that once the fluids enter the wellbore, all the geologic complexities and rocks will be left behind. Therefore, the focus will be more on fluid compositions and properties and how they are linked and behave within the source (reservoir) to create the maximum value. During this process, fluids are the only desired subsurface elements (with an attached commercial unit pricing) that change hands from one discipline to another discipline. Parallel to this fluids/fluid properties are evaluated for relevant applications and also used in different software applications while they move from reservoir to the wellbore and facilities and all the way to the refineries then to the sales. Therefore, there is always special focus in terms of capturing their needed properties for various applications. Along the way, we face various needs and challenges. Such needs span a wide spectrum of applications, from property valuations, health safety and environment, and all the way from reservoir to well and facilities performance de-risking and management. In this study, we focus on current state-of-the-art in this area and what the current and forward-looking advancements are while highlighting various elements of the progress. In addition, lifecycle management of the fluids and the associated information extracted with modern techniques will be included in this study. Particular attention was given to new developments in terms of hardware, sensors and miniaturization, along with numerical techniques in terms of new/coupled physics and as well as data analytics, molecular simulation, and advanced computational methods.

石油流体性质及其表征的最新进展回顾

摘要 众所周知,许多石油工程和其他跨学科工程应用都需要石油流体特性(也称为压力-温度-体积-PVT)。特别是近年来,随着无缝和高效集成成为必要,多学科获取此类数据及其使用变得越来越重要。价值链每一步的流体特性对于项目评估、安全和决策以及地质和地球物理信息都极其重要。储层流体的关键点之一是,一旦流体进入井筒,将留下所有地质复杂性和岩石。所以,重点将更多地放在流体成分和特性上,以及它们如何在源(储层)内连接和表现以创造最大价值。在此过程中,流体是唯一需要的地下元素(附有商业单位定价),可以从一个学科转手到另一个学科。与此并行的是,针对相关应用程序对流体/流体特性进行评估,并在不同的软件应用程序中使用它们,同时它们从储层到井眼和设施,一直到炼油厂再到销售。因此,在捕获各种应用所需的属性方面总是特别关注。在此过程中,我们面临着各种需求和挑战。这些需求涵盖了广泛的应用领域,从财产估价、健康安全和环境、以及从水库到油井以及设施性能去风险和管理的所有过程。在这项研究中,我们重点关注该领域当前的最新技术以及当前和前瞻性的进展,同时突出了进展的各个要素。此外,流体的生命周期管理以及使用现代技术提取的相关信息也将包含在本研究中。特别关注硬件、传感器和小型化方面的新发展,以及新/耦合物理方面的数值技术以及数据分析、分子模拟和先进的计算方法。我们专注于该领域当前的最先进技术以及当前和前瞻性的进步,同时强调进步的各个要素。此外,流体的生命周期管理以及使用现代技术提取的相关信息也将包含在本研究中。特别关注硬件、传感器和小型化方面的新发展,以及新/耦合物理方面的数值技术以及数据分析、分子模拟和先进的计算方法。我们专注于该领域当前的最先进技术以及当前和前瞻性的进步,同时强调进步的各个要素。此外,流体的生命周期管理以及使用现代技术提取的相关信息也将包含在本研究中。特别关注硬件、传感器和小型化方面的新发展,以及新/耦合物理方面的数值技术以及数据分析、分子模拟和先进的计算方法。
