Pressure-composition diagram
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-002926
A graphical representation showing the phase behavior of a multi-component fluid mixture as a function of pressure and composition at a constant temperature. It delineates the boundaries between single-phase (liquid or vapor) and two-phase (liquid-vapor) regions. These diagrams are used to understand fluid behavior in reservoirs and surface facilities, particularly for gas condensate and volatile oil systems.
