Full-Visual PVT System

Function. Performs hydrocarbon phase-behavior studies at reservoir pressure and temperature with a full-visual cell for direct observation of phase changes on black oil, volatile oil and gas condensate.

Controlled. Cell pressure and temperature; sample mixing.

Measured. Phase volumes and boundaries by direct visual observation, saturation/bubble-point pressure.

Cell volume, pressure and temperature ratings, wetted materials, visual/measurement options and instrumentation are configured per project. Guaranteed performance and included hardware are stated only in the project-specific technical proposal and approved datasheet.
