HCPV

Brief

HCPV stands for hydrocarbon pore volume. It reflects the volume of hydrocarbons at the reservoir/downhole conditions.

Equation

$HCVP = \frac{A * h * \phi * S_o}{B_o}$

where

$A$ = Area, m2

$B_o$ = oil formation volume factor, m3/m3

$h$ = Net pay, oil saturated thickness, m

$HCPV$ = hydrocarbon pore volume, m3

$\phi$ = porosity, fraction

$S_o$ = oil saturation, fraction
