  2. Volume correction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_Correction_Factor

    The formula for Volume Correction Factor is commonly defined as: ... refers to a small base temperature correction value. ... Crude Oil. e.g. Most Crude. 341.0957: 0.00:

  3. Allocation (oil and gas) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allocation_(oil_and_gas)

    MF, Meter Factor, adjust to actual volume, this factor is determined by probing CTL is a volume correction factor for the effects of temperature on liquid [32] SF, Shrinkage Factor, adjusts for changes in pressure temperature and composition, for instance shrinkage of fluid occurs when pressure drops and constituents change to gas phase

  4. Dropping point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dropping_point

    The heat is reduced until the test tube temperature is at most 4 °F (2.2 °C) less than the oil/block temperature. Once the temperature has stabilized the sample is inserted. The dropping point is the temperature recorded on the test tube thermometer, plus a correction factor for the oil/block temperature, when a drop of grease falls through ...

  5. Gas/oil ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas/oil_ratio

    Definition of formation volume factor Bo and gas/oil ratio Rs for oil. When oil is produced to surface temperature and pressure it is usual for some natural gas to come out of solution. The gas/oil ratio (GOR) is the ratio of the volume of gas ("scf") that comes out of solution to the volume of oil — at standard conditions.

  6. Temperature dependence of viscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_dependence_of...

    Increasing temperature results in a decrease in viscosity because a larger temperature means particles have greater thermal energy and are more easily able to overcome the attractive forces binding them together. An everyday example of this viscosity decrease is cooking oil moving more fluidly in a hot frying pan than in a cold one.

  7. Oil in place - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_in_place

    The oil in place is calculated as the product of the volume of porous oil-bearing rock, the porosity of the rock, and its saturation. [1] Correction factors have to be applied for the difference between the volume of the same mass of oil in the reservoir to its volume when brought to the surface, which is caused by the different physical ...

  8. Volume units used in petroleum engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_units_used_in...

    Oil conversion factor from m³ to bbl (or stb) is 6.28981100; Gas conversion factor from standard m³ to scf is 35.314666721; Note that the m³ gas conversion factor takes into account a difference in the standard temperature base for measurement of gas volumes in metric and imperial units.

  9. Critical point (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_point...

    The commonly known phases solid, liquid and vapor are separated by phase boundaries, i.e. pressure–temperature combinations where two phases can coexist. At the triple point, all three phases can coexist. However, the liquid–vapor boundary terminates in an endpoint at some critical temperature T c and critical pressure p c. This is the ...
