Water formation volume factor
The water formation volume factor represents the change in volume of the brine as it is transported from the reservoir conditions to surface conditions[1].
The units are reservoir barrels per surface barrel at standard conditions, res bbl/STB.
Math and Physics
where
Application range
The correlation is valid through the full range of solids concentrations, temperatures to 260F, and pressures to 5000psia.
Example. Calculating water salinity from density
Example source [1]
Input data
= 65.4 lbm/ft3
Calculate water salinity in weight percent solids?
Solution
Nomenclature
= water salinity / solids concentration, ppm
= water salinity / solids concentration, mg/l
= weight percent solids, %
= water specific gravity, dimensionless
