# GasCompressibility-py

GasCompressibility-py is a Python library for calculating the gas compressibility factor, $Z$, based on real gas law. It is designed with practical oil field application in mind, in which the required inputs ($T$, $P$, and $\gamma_{g}$) can be readily obtained from the surface facility.

Have you ever had an experience of finding the package that piques your interest, only to give up a few moments later after finding out that it has an insane learning curve because the documentation sucks? Worry not. **The package comes with extensive documentation support.** If you have any questions or looking for tutorials, just skim through this README introduction or check out the [official documentation](https://aegis4048.github.io/GasCompressibility-py/theories.html).

</a>


## 1. Installation

The package is hosted on the [PyPi](https://pypi.org/project/gascompressibility/) page. You can remotely install it with the `pip` command:
```
pip install gascompressibility
```
To download the most recent version:
```
pip install gascompressibility --upgrade
```

If you are a chemical or petroleum engineer who doesn't know what `pip` is, read [below](#pip).

## 2. Quickstart

Check [gascompressibility.quickstart](https://aegis4048.github.io/GasCompressibility-py/quickstart.html) for more examples.

```python
>>> import gascompressibility as gc
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
>>>
>>> results, fig, ax = gc.quickstart(prmin=0.2, prmax=15, zmodel='DAK')
>>> plt.show()
```
![Alt text](docs/_static/quickstart_index.png)

## 3. Usage

The package allows for quick calculation of the z-factor from the gas specific gravity ($\gamma_{g}$), pressure ($P$), and temperature ($T$). Check [gascompressibility.calc_z](https://aegis4048.github.io/GasCompressibility-py/calc_z.html) for more examples.

**Basic (most common) usage:**
```python
>>> import gascompressibility as gc
>>>
>>> gc.calc_z(sg=0.7, T=75, P=2010)
0.7366562810878984
```
**In presence of significant non-hydrocarbon impurities:**
```python
>>> gc.calc_z(sg=0.7, T=75, P=2010, CO2=0.1, H2S=0.07, N2=0.05)
0.7765149771306533
```

**When pseudo-critical properties are known (not common):**

```python
>>> gc.calc_z(Pr=1.5, Tr=1.5)
0.859314380561347
```

**Picking correlation models of your choice**
```python
>>> gc.calc_z(sg=0.7, T=75, P=2010, zmodel='kareem', pmodel='sutton')
0.7150183342641309
```

**Returning all associated pseudo-critical properties computed**

```python
>>> gc.calc_z(sg=0.7, T=75, P=2010, ps_props=True)
{'z': 0.7366562810878984, 'Tpc': 371.4335560823552, 'Ppc': 660.6569792741872, 'J': 0.56221847, 'K': 14.450840999999999, 'Tr': 1.4394768357478496, 'Pr': 3.0646766226921294}
```
---------------

The package additionally supports calculation of pseudo-critical properties. Check
[gascompressibility.pseudocritical.Sutton](https://aegis4048.github.io/GasCompressibility-py/sutton.html) and
[gascompressibility.pseudocritical.Piper](https://aegis4048.github.io/GasCompressibility-py/piper.html) for more information.

**Reduced pressure calculation from specific gravity:**

```python
>>> from gascompressibility.pseudocritical import Piper
>>>
>>> Piper().calc_Pr(sg=0.7)
2.7950877932259734
```

**Pseudo-critical pressure calculation from specific gravity:**

```python
>>> Piper().calc_Ppc(sg=0.7, N2=0.1, CO2=0.1, H2S=0.05)
724.3779622618493
```

**Reduced pressure calculation from pseudo-critical pressure**
```python
>>> Sutton().calc_Pr(Ppc=724.37, P=2010)
2.7951185167800987
```

## 4. Models Implemented

<ins><i>Pseudo-critical models</i></ins>

-   **Sutton (1985):** Makes corrections for acid fractions: $H_2S$ and
    $CO_2$
-   **Piper (1993):** Improved version of Piper. Additionally supports
    corrections for $N_2$ along with $H_2S$ and $CO_2$
- [Theories 1: Pseudo-Critical Property Models](https://aegis4048.github.io/GasCompressibility-py/theories.html#pseudo-critical-property-models)

<ins><i>Z-factor models</i></ins>

-   **DAK (1975):** The most widely used z-factor model in the oil and
    gas industry for the past 40 years. You can\'t go wrong with this
    model
-   **Hall-Yarborough (1973):** Not recommended.
-   **Londono (2005):** Improved version of DAK. Math is exactly the
    same, but regression coefficients are fitted with 4x more data
    points.
-   **Kareem (2016):** Fast, but have shorter working ranges
    ($P_r < 15$)
-   [Theories 2: Z-Factor Correlation Models](https://aegis4048.github.io/GasCompressibility-py/theories.html#z-factor-correlation-models)

Not sure which model to use? You don\'t need to worry about it - default models (Piper + DAK) are more than good enough for real life applications. However, if computation speed is a big concern, use Kareem's method for z-factor correlation for $P_r < 15$. Check
[Theories 3: What models should I use?](https://aegis4048.github.io/GasCompressibility-py/theories.html#what-models-should-i-use) for more information.

## 5. Working Ranges

The below table summarizes the working $P_r$ and $T_r$ ranges of each
model, according to it\'s own original paper.


| Model           | $P_r$     | $T_r$     |
| --------------- | --------- | --------- |
| DAK             | [1, 3]    | [0.2, 30] |
| Hall-Yarborough | [1.15, 3] | (0, 20.5] |
| Londono         | [1, 3]    | [0.2, 30] |
| Kareem          | [1.15, 3] | [0.2, 15] |

However, normally we don't know the $P_r$ and $T_r$ values of a given mixture. The below figure summarizes the corresponding $P_r$ and $T_r$ (computed with Sutton's method) for each of specific gravity, temperature, and pressure ranges. For example, assuming $\gamma_{g}$ = 0.9 (green lines), z-factor correlation can't be used for extreme conditions like $P$ \> 19,000 psia, or $T$ \> 800 Â°F. If Kareem's method (`zmodel='kareem'`) is used for speed, you can't use it for $P$ \> 11,500 psia.

## 6. Tips

<details><summary><b>What does 'pip' mean?</b></summary>

If you are asking this question, you are probably a petroleum or chemical engineer with minimal programming knowledge. It's basically a command-line program that helps you download & install any open-source library with minimal hassle. Here I offer some practical tips for engineers not proficient in Python (yet...!):

1.  Download Anaconda from [here](https://www.anaconda.com/download).
2.  Run the downloaded file. It's filename will look something like
    this: "Anaconda3-2023.03-1-Windows-x86_64.exe"
3.  It will ask you to select destination folder. By default, its
    `C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3`
4.  If it asks you to check if you want to add Codna to the environtment
    PATH variable, check yes. It will say that it is not recommended,
    but trust me - this will make your life easier if you don't know
    what you are doing.
5.  Once installation is finished, go to windows search tab (bottom left
    corner of your screen). Type "cmd" and launch.
6.  If installation is done correctly, you should have `(base)` next to
    your current directory, like this: `(base) C:\Users\EricKim>`. If
    you don't see `(base)`, go to windows search tab again. Type
    "Anaconda". Click "Anaconda Prompt (Anaconda 3)" and launch it. If
    you still don't see `(base)`, you are about to do dive into some
    painful troubleshooting. Ask your friends who are good at Python to
    help you with it.
7.  If the Anaconda installation is done correctly, make your command
    line look like the following and press enter:
    `(base) C:\Users\EricKim>pip install gascompressibility`.
8.  Congrats! Installation is finished
9.  Type `(base) C:\Users\EricKim>Jupyter Notebook` and try the package
    on Jupyter Notebook.
