Understanding and accurately predicting the compressibility factor of natural gas is pivotal for a range of engineering applications, from the design of reservoirs to the optimisation of gas ...

Two separate correlations for predicting the isothermal compressibility of reservoir fluids and crude oils have been developed. One correlation is based on molecular weight; the other, on API gravity.

Pressure waves propagating through bubble-containing liquids in tubes experience considerable attenuation. Researchers have now derived an equation describing this phenomenon, demonstrating that ...
