169 Phase Behavior and Flow of Reservoir Fluids


Description:
This session will cover a range of topics pertaining to the phase behavior and flow of reservoir fluids in subsurface environments. Example fields of study include flow assurance, enhanced oil recovery, geothermal energy production, underground thermal treatment, reservoir engineering, and CO2 sequestration. Talks focusing on either experimental measurements or theoretical predictions/simulations are welcome.
