چکیده انگلیسی
Multiphase equilibria for water/hydrocarbon mixtures are frequently encountered in hydrocarbon reservoirs. The presence of water in these mixtures can lead to a higher number of equilibrating phases, increasing the complexity of the multiphase split calculations. It is a common approach to treating water as the bulk free phase and performing only two-phase split calculations on the hydrocarbon-rich liquid phase and vapor phase. The free-water flash algorithm uses a different approach; it considers the effect of water presence on the overall phase equilibrium of water/hydrocarbon mixtures, albeit also assuming the aqueous phase to be pure water. The free-water algorithm might be less accurate in some cases where the solubility of methane in the aqueous phase cannot be neglected. In this study, a modified version of the free-water flash method previously developed by the authors, i.e., the so-called augmented free-water flash, is extended to perform three-phase vapor-oleic-aqueous (VOA) flash calculations for water/hydrocarbons mixtures on the basis of the assumption that only the existence of water and methane is considered in the aqueous phase. The flash package incorporating this augmented free-water method can handle the single-phase, two-phase, or three-phase equilibrium calculations. Example calculations made on two water/hydrocarbons mixtures demonstrate that the phase compositions and phase mole fractions calculated by augmented free-water method provide better predictions compared with the traditional free-water method since the solubility of methane is considered in the aqueous phase. Our new algorithm is also shown to be computationally more efficient than the conventional full three-phase flash algorithm. Therefore, the augmented free-water approach strikes a good balance between computational efficiency and prediction accuracy.
