Abstract
⺠New PC-SAFT characterization technique to predict asphaltene phase stability. ⺠Uses fewer adjustable parameters compared to earlier methodologies. ⺠Asphaltenes characterized by their molecular weight and aromaticity. ⺠Model is able to predict a number of reservoir fluid properties. ⺠It can be extended to study effect of asphaltene polydispersity.
