Study of Factors That Influence Prediction of CO2 MMP

Prediction of minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) in miscible gas enhanced oil recovery (EOR) simulation depends on the ability of the equation of state to represent adequately the properties of components in the injected gas and oil mixtures over a wide range of conditions.
