Fluid Terms

• Plus fluid
 From PVT-report
 Component mole%’s, and C7+ molecular weights and
densities
 Ends with plus fraction (e.g. C10+)
• Characterized Fluid
 Has properties assigned to each component (Tc, Pc, etc.)
 C7+ components lumped into pseudo-components
 Ready for use in PVT-simulations
• Regressed Fluid
 Component properties tuned to PVT data
Storing Fluid Compositions

 Entered plus fluids automatically stored
 Characterized fluids can be stored
 PVT-data can be input and stored with fluid
• Text File (*.chc)
 Easy to exchange between users
