The general form of the Oil Material Balance equation was first published by Schilthuis in 1941[1].
Math & Physics
Equating all underground withdrawals to the sum of the volume changes[1]:
For use in the code to find Pres:
Pres = Pi - (Np * Bo + Np * (Rp - Rs) * Bg + (Wp * Bw - Wi * Bw - Ggi * Bginj - We * Bw) - (N * (Bo - Boi) + N * (Rsi - Rs) * Bg + m * N * Boi * (Bg / Bgi - 1))) * (1 - Swc) / (N * (1 + m) * Boi * (cw * Swc + cf))
For use in the code to find Np:
Np = (N * (Bo - Boi) + N * (Rsi - Rs) * Bg + m * N * Boi * (Bg / Bgi - 1) + N * (1 + m) * Boi * (Pi - Pres) * (cw * Swc + cf) / (1 - Swc) - (Wp * Bw - Wi * Bw - Gging * Bgi - We * Bw)) / (Bo + (Rp - Rs) * Bg)
Discussion
... most powerful tool for investigating reservoirs and understanding their performance ...— L.P. Dake [2]
... the safest technique in the business since it's minimum assumption route through the subject of reservoir engineering ...— L.P. Dake [2]
