Raah, Nagi A. Osman Department of Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Khartoum Khartoum, Sudan ( raahs@yahoo.com) Astract: This paper aims to find empirical equation to calculate the vapor pressure of the mixture of crude oil from Sudan and taking advantage of some of the PVT properties that are measured experimentally. Where the data is retrieved from many fields and different wells to get the relationship etween vapor pressure and properties availale Emphasis was placed on thermodynamic properties have a direct effective on the vapor pressure, and has to take useful of the density of the mixture at the oiling pressure measured in the laoratory to calculate these properties using the equations are availale in advance (Raiza Duert) and then use the method of regression analysis using the Excel program to find a relationship etween vapor pressure and properties calculated on the asis of the density at the oiling of the mixture and the molecular weight of the mixture. Where the results were compared with some of the empirical equations used to calculate the vapor pressure of some of the world raw materials used other properties of non-thermodynamic properties as a function of vapor pressure. The study found positive results in dependence on the thermodynamic properties of a direct impact on the vapor pressure and through the use of some statistical metrics to compare other equations which proved the quality of the idea where the error etween the measured pressure and the calculated error rate dropped Keywords:Merowe Dam; Specific Water Consumption S.W.C; Routing, Operation Rule Curve; Megawatt INTRODUCTION The ule point is essential in reservoir simulation and in design of transport and separator equipment.there are asically one experimental method and threetheoretical methods for ule point pressure of reservoir fluid. Constant mass expansion tests (CME) is the experimental test for ule point pressure. The prediction methods are correlation and equation of state. The availale correlations of the prediction of ule pressure include Standing, Lasater, Glas, Stunn and Farshad, Vazquez and Beggs, AL Marhounand Hanafy et al correlation. All these correlation incorporate four input feature from datasets (1) reservoir temperature, (2)API (3) gas specific gravity and (4) solution gas oil ratio. The first three parameters are readily availale from composition analysis. The fourth parameter is determined experimentally from differential lieration test. Hence, these models are not predictive, as experimental phase equilirium data are needed.hence these correlations are used only to verify experimental data. Quick prediction of the ule point pressure with minimum information remained difficult task. The ule point pressure can e predicted from equation of state using ule point calculation procedure. There are a numer of equations of state availale such as PR, SRK,However, all of the availale cannot e used as a quick procedure for the prediction of ule point pressure of reservoir fluids. It is the purpose of this paper is to provide correlation for the prediction of mixture vapor pressure. The equation, with data of compositional analysis only, facilitates the calculation of ule point pressure. The Model The vapor pressure of mixtureis considered to e a function of critical temperature, critical pressure, ule point temperature, centric factorand gas oil ratio as P P(, Tc, Pc, T,, Rs ) (1) 202

2 The parameters in the mixture characterization procedure are calculated directly from measured gas oil ratio data for the hydrocaron fractions. In turn the critical temperature, critical pressure, ule point temperature is function of density at ule point pressureas given y Riazi and Dauert (1987), equation (3) The molecular weight of mixture are calculate y using equation (2) mixture a exp 1.008M M mixutr mixutr...(2) f e M c dm M......(3) wherea to f, are constants for ule point temperature as follows Tale (1) Parameter A c D f E T (k) To calculation critical temperature and critical pressure is function of specific gravity and ule point temperature as given y Riazi and Dauert: a exp f e M c dm M......(4) where a to f, are constants for critical temperature and critical pressure as follows y tale (2) Tale (2) Parameter A C D f E P c * * T c * Hence equations(1) and(2) can e written as P P( P, T, T,, R, M, ) c c Thea centricfactor in this work calculate as function in (T c, P c ) y using equation (6) Where: Pc 3log Tc 7 1 T.. (6) ω = Acentric factor P c = Critical pressure, psia T c = Critical temperature, Rᴼ T c = Normal oiling point, Rᴼ S W (5) Using the principles of corresponding state equation (5) can e reduced further to P P( P, T, T, R,, ) (7) c c There are many formulations for vapor pressure such as Antoine and Wagner equations of vapor pressure of pure components. In this work is adoptedthe model y using Microsoft Excel(regressionlogarithmic) to express vapor pressure of mixture. s Ln P = a + lnt c T c P c e R S d ω f (8) Where: P = The ule point pressure (ar) T c = Critical temperature k P c = Critical pressure ar T P = The ule point pressure k R s = Gas oil ratio (scf/st) ɷ = a centric factor 203

3 The parametersaoveare otained using equation (2) and (5) and using the data direction. Experimental Data Experimental PVT data were supplied y the Ministry of Energy and Mining, Sudan, for a numer of wells representing different reservoirs. The data include compositional analysis of single caron numers of up to Eicosanes plus (C20+) and Hexatriacontanes plus (C36+) and PVT of CME of ottom hole samples. The data also include ule point pressure,reservoir temperature, and specific gravity of the reservoir fluid.

5 Comparison of correlations Statistical Error Analysis Mean Asolute per- cent error, minimum /maximum asolute per- cent error, standard deviation and correlation coefficient were computed for each correlation Tale (5) shows the statistical error analysis results of the ule-point pressure correlations. This work correlation gives low values of Mean Asolute Per-cent Error (MAPE) and standard error of percent and 0.235percent, respectively. Lower value of MAPE indicates a etter accuracy of the correlation. The correlation coefficient of the correlation is almost equal to 1.0(0.995). This shows that a good agreement exists etween experimental and calculated ule point pressure. In comparison withother known correlations, this work correlation gives lowest AAPRE and standard Error. This shows that this work correlation predicts etter ule point pressure for Sudanese crude oil than any other known correlations.
