Brief
The P/Z plot is a plot of P/z versus cumulative gas production, Gp.
The interpretation technique is fitting the data points with the straight line to estimate GIIP.
The P/Z plot is based on the Gas Material Balance equation.
Math & Physics
Applying Real Gas EOS at reservoir conditions:
- (1)
Applying Real Gas EOS at standard conditions:
- (2)
Dividing eq. 2 by eq. 1 and rearranging:
- (3)
Applying eq. 3 for initial conditions and for any point in time:
Applying eq. 3 for any point in time:
Therefore at any time:
Or:
Thus a plot of P/z vs cumulative produced gas is a straight line intersecting X axis at GIIP.
Discussion
Griffith correlation adds a hook to the originally straight Hagedorn and Brown VLP curve.
