Thermodynamic modelling of the effects of high temperatures on brine fluid density
Abstract: Current trends in oil discoveries points to deep water zones characterized by temperatures ranging from 150oC to 350oC which needs good prediction of the fracture pressure and pore pressure hence imperative to continually understand temperature-density relationships of the fluids which are pumped downhole for well control. This paper seeks to propose a new, cost effective and easier method of estimating the reduction in density of brine completion fluid as it …
