Explanation / Answer

amount of oil in place in STB = G(t)= Ah(1-Swt) /  Boi)

= 2700*100*10 (1- 0.25) / 1.25

=2700000*0.75/1.25

= 162*105 SBT

STOIIP = stock tank oil in place, stb

A= area, acre

h = reservoir thickness, ft

= rock porosity, %

Swc =connate water saturation, %

Boi = oil formation volume factor, rb/stb

2) formation volume factor Bg = Psc zt / TscP

=1750* 2950 / 175*300..

=98.33 SCF

3) total amt of oil SBT is 162*105 which is at pressure of 2950

now at bubble pressure of 350 = 162*105 / 350

=46285 SBT
