PVT
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003010
An abbreviation for pressure, volume, and temperature, which describes the phase behavior and properties of reservoir fluids under changing conditions. PVT analysis involves laboratory measurements on fluid samples to determine properties like bubble point, gas-oil ratio, formation volume factor, and viscosity. These data are used to build an equation of state model that predicts fluid behavior for reservoir simulation and production forecasting.
