Sub-surface sampling
• Can only be representative when pressure at sampling
point is above or equal to the saturation pressure.
• At pressure close to saturation pressure serious
possibility of
sample integrity being lost.
• In recent years considerable advance in downhole fluid
sampling.

Surface sampling
• Samples of oil and gas taken from separator connected with the
well
• Fluids recombined in the laboratory on the
basis of the produced GOR

GENERAL STEPS
1. Sampling & Component Data QC
2. Input Component Data & Composition (%Mole)
3. Input Pseudo-component properties & Match Density
4. Match Saturation Pressure (Split Properties & Adjust BI Factor)
5. Match Lab Data (Adjust Pc,Tc,AF [for pure component], Tc,Pc,Vs,BI [for pseudocomponent])
6. Export Fluid Model
