McCain Oil Formation Volume Factor equation
McCain equation is an material balance equation for the oil formation volume factor published in 1990 [1].
Math & Physics
Example. Calculation of the oil density
Example source [2]
Input data
= 53.24 sm3/sm3
= 0.85 or 35 API
= 0.75
= 90C or 363K
= 10 MPa
Calculate oil density at p = 10 MPa?
Solution
= 749.645 kg/m3
The solution is available in the online PVT calculator software model at www.pengtools.com
Application range
