This requires significant experimental effort and is challenging to implement. Furthermore, component merging is often performed during the PVT fitting process, which, while increasing computational speed, reduces accuracy and prevents accurate PVT phase-characteristic thermodynamic parameters from being obtained.

[0026] To make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Here, the exemplary embodiments of the present invention and their descriptions are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0027] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for determining thermodynamic parameters of PVT phase characteristics of reservoir fluids according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the method for determining the thermodynamic parameters of the PVT phase characteristics of the reservoir fluid in the embodiment of the present invention may include:
[0028] Step 101: Determine the critical temperature and critical pressure of the reservoir fluid plus components based on the specific gravity and normal pressure boiling point of the reservoir fluid plus components;
[0029] Step 102: determining an eccentricity factor of the reservoir fluid plus component based on the vapor pressure of the reservoir fluid plus component;
[0030] Step 103: Determine the binary interaction coefficient between the reservoir fluid additive component and the hydrocarbon component based on the result parameters of the reservoir fluid saturation pressure experiment;
[0031] Step 104: Determine a volume offset term of the reservoir fluid plus components based on the result parameters of the reservoir fluid density measurement;
[0032] Step 105: Determine the viscosity parameter of the reservoir fluid according to the result parameter of the reservoir fluid viscosity measurement.
[0033] Traditional methods for determining the PVT phase characteristic thermodynamic parameters of reservoir fluids require first conducting differential degassing, isocratic expansion, isochoric depletion, separator experiments, and expansion experiments. Numerical simulation software is then used to fit the experimental data to obtain the fluid PVT phase characteristic thermodynamic parameters. This requires a large amount of experimental data and is difficult to conduct. However, in the embodiments of the present invention, only reservoir fluid saturation pressure experiments and reservoir fluid density and viscosity measurements are required beforehand. This simple experimental process allows the acquisition of the data required to determine the PVT phase characteristic thermodynamic parameters of reservoir fluids, and the required data is far less than that acquired through traditional experimental methods.
[0034] To increase computational speed, traditional methods often merge components during the PVT fitting process and uniformly input all experimental data, fitting all data in one step. This results in any experimental data problems (such as missing or incorrect data) affecting the results of determining the PVT phase characteristic thermodynamic parameters of the reservoir fluid, reducing the accuracy of the PVT phase characteristic thermodynamic parameters of the reservoir fluid. Furthermore, traditional methods fit a large amount of experimental data, which itself leads to low accuracy in determining the PVT phase characteristic thermodynamic parameters of the reservoir fluid. In the embodiments of the present invention, a small amount of experimental data obtained through reservoir fluid saturation pressure experiments and reservoir fluid density and viscosity measurements is used to perform step-by-step fitting to gradually determine the PVT phase characteristic thermodynamic parameters of the reservoir fluid. Data problems in any link only affect the parameters of the relevant link and have no impact on other parameters, thus ensuring the accuracy of the PVT phase characteristic thermodynamic parameters of the reservoir fluid.

Component properties include the critical pressure, critical temperature, eccentricity factor, molecular weight, volume offset term, specific gravity, and atmospheric boiling point of each formation fluid component.
