1. True or False: Oil/ Gas reserves may increase as the Oil/Gas price goes up
True
2. True or False: The price of natural gas and coal can be estimated based on the current
oil price only
False
3. The critical pressure of a gas is 644 psia, critical temperature is 340 R. Calculate the Bg
factor for a reservoir pressure of 3000 psia and temperature of 580 R.
Answer: 0.0049
4. The volume of gas in a reservoir is 500 BCF. What is the pore space occupied by gas?
Use the value of Bg calculated in Problem 3.
5. Given the pore volume of gas in Problem 4, and a porosity of 29%, and a water
saturation of 30%, calculate the bulk volume of the reservoirs.
G = Vb (1-Swi)/Bg = Vb (0.29) (1-0.3) = 2.443 x109 Vb = 12.034x109 ft3
Pore volume occupied by gas = 2.443 x109 ft3 Z at 500 psia = 0.9488 Bg= 0.03111 res ft3/scf
Gf=Gas in the res at 500 psia = (12.034e9) (0.29) (1-0.30)/0.03111 = 78.5 x109 ft3
Answer: 84 %
8. Calculate the initial gas in place in a volumetric reservoir if after producing 2 BCF of gas
the reservoir pressure declines from the initial pressure of 2500 psia (Bgi =0.006872) to
2300 psia (Bg = 0.008553).
G(Bg-Bgi) = GpBg G=10.176 BCF
Answer: 10.18
