Description
Summary:This project is about the research on the effect of equation of state (EOS) and tuning parameters on the minimum miscibility pressure (MMP). To be exact it is the research about the effect on the MMP value when the parameters inside the EOS that used to predict the MMP value is tuned to match the data from experimental approach. From there we will see whether EOS may able to predict the MMP as good as the experiment or not. Besides that, at the end, there will be analysis on how much does the difference may take in place when the result between the original and tuned EOS is compared. The relevancy of this project is influenced by the factor of the tendency Oil and Gas industry today in using gas injection as their enhance oil recovery process. The relationship between gas injection processes with EOS is that whenever gas injection is used in enhance oil recovery, the purpose will be the same which is to obtain as high as it can in term of monetary. In order to have an economical project, the engineers need to know the MMP value since the project needs to be operated at the pressure on or above MMP. With that MMP determination is affecting the whole operation. Overall of the project will consist of two main stages which are the first stage the project will start with understanding build up and data collection while on the second stage the project will proceed with calculation and simulation for getting the result. At the end of the project, the result that is obtained will be analyzed and documented.
