COURSE DESCRIPTION
|
|
Fluid properties are a base course for
third year Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering students.
This course offers a through knowledge of properties of
petroleum and natural gas. The course starts with the
basic of hydrocarbon chemistry. Then the components of
petroleum are introduced. Phase behavior of five reservoir
fluids is examined in detail. Both correlative and experimental
methods to determine the physical properties are introduced.
Finally, computational phase equilibria is explained as
a basis for the third and fourth year courses.

OBJECTIVE OF THE COURSE
|
|
The objective of this course is to provide
students detailed knowledge of the petroleum and natural
gas fluids. The course is designed to cover important
fundamental topics so that the students will be equipped
with a working knowledge of hydrocarbon chemistry, physical
chemistry and thermodynamics.
