Do not write anything other than your roll number on question paper. 2. Assume suitable data wherever essential and mention it clearly. 3. Answer Q. No. 1 (compulsory ~ 20 marks) and any 2 (2x15=30 marks) from the rest 4. Use and mark properly in the figures of the figure sheet for answering relevant question, Write your roll ‘number on the figure sheet and attach it with your answer script Q.No. I, Answer the following (any four): 4x5=20 () The division of dry gas and wet gas is indicative of system composition of the reservoir fluid — explain the statement with the help of phase envelope in P-T diagram. (ii) Draw and label the phase envelope for gas-cap gas and oil rim of a saturated petroleum reservoir in same P-T diagram and justify your answer. ii) Oil formation volume is generally less for black oil compared to volatile oil ~ Justify the statement. (iv) Petroleum fluids are complex mixture of hydrocarbon, heteroatom and metal compounds and ‘may present in different state as gas, liquid and solid Justify the statement. (¥) Loci of critical points as well as the shape of phase envelopes in P-T space for different proportions of components in binary mixtures are different ~ explain with proper justification Q.No.2. (a) The phase envelopes of two natural reservoir fluids are described by the diagram in Figure 1 (Figure sheet). Describe the phase behavior of the fluids along the pressure decline path (1 2) during production, Comment on the type of hydrocarbon reservoir for both the cases.
