McCain Oil Formation Volume Factor equation
McCain equation is determined from material material balance equation based on the definition of the oil formation volume factor[1].
Math & Physics
Example. Calculation of the oil density
Example source [3]
Input data
- = 53.24 sm3/sm3 at P = 10 MPa
- = 0.85 or 35 API
- = 0.75
- = 749 kg/m3 at P = 10 MPa
Calculate oil formation oil factor at p = 10 MPa?
Solution
- = 1.199 rm3/sm3
The solution is available in the online PVT calculator software model at www.pengtools.com
