1. Calculate the oil and gas initially in place for the following reservoir, which was
discovered at Pb. State any assumptions used. Initial fluid properties are:
Boi =1.55 rvb/stb
Bgi = 1.44 rvb/Mscf
Rsi = 1.30 Mscf/stb
After producing 250,000 stb of oil and its associated solution gas, the PVT
Properties are:
Bo = 1.11 rvb/stb
Bg = 2.06 rvb/Mscf
Rs = 0.60 Mscf/stb
3. What is the ultimate recovery (MMscf) for a gas reservoir with production record
shown in the following table. Abandonment pressure is 400 psia.
Boi = 1.20 rvb/stb, Bob ( at the bubble point) = 1.30 rvb/stb, S w = 0.25, cw = 3.378
x 10-6 psia and cf = 4.137 x 10-6 psia.
(Anwer: N or OIIP = 304,948,864 stb)
5. For an undersaturated reservoir above the bubble point, P b, show that the overall
compressibility of the formation (cf), connate water (cw) and oil (co) can be
summarized as
c o S o + c w S wc +c f
C effective =
So
6. A gas reservoir contains GIIP of 2800 MMscf and z of 0.8, which was discovered
at 3000 psi and 160 oF. After some years of production, the new Bg has become
3.300 res bbl/Mscf. Calculate the cumulative gas produced, Gp in Mscf.

9. 80 Mstb of oil and 60 MMscf of gas have been produced from a reservoir
discovered at a pressure of 4,200 psia., and the reservoir is currently at a pressure
of 3,400 psia. Two descriptions of the reservoir have been proposed. The first
description states that there are 245 Mstb of oil in place with a gas cap containing
1000 MMscf. The second description indicates that there are 675 Mstb of initial
oil in place and 1,500 MMscf of gas in place. Which description is correct? PVT
data are in the following table.
