The image above represents a gas recovery factor. To calculate the gas recovery factor, three essential parameters are needed and these parameters are initial pressure(Pi), initial compressibility factor (Zi) and P/Z Ratio (P/Z).
The formula for calculating the gas recovery factor:
RFGÂ = 1 –Â P/Z.Pi / Zi
Where;
RFGÂ = Gas Recovery Factor (P, Z)
Pi = Initial Pressure
Zi = Initial Compressibility Factor
P/ZÂ = P/Z Ratio
Let’s solve an example;
Find the gas recovery factor when the initial pressure is 12, the initial compressibility factor is 7, and the P/Z ratio is 36.
This implies that;
Pi = Initial Pressure = 12
Zi = Initial Compressibility Factor = 7
P/Z = P/Z Ratio = 36
RFGÂ = 1 –Â P / Z.Pi / Zi
RFGÂ = 1 –Â 36[12 / 7]
That is, RFG = 1 – 36[1.714]
RFG = 1 – 61.714
RFG = -60.714
Therefore, the gas recovery factor is -60.714.
