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
P/Z plot is a part of the Reservoir Management workflow in the E&P Portal used to estimate Reservoirs GIIP.
Gas Flowing Material Balance is the more advanced tool to determine the Reservoirs GIIP as well as Well's EUR and JD.
