Question

Gas was contracted at $1.10 per MCF at contract conditions of 14.4 psia and 80F. What is the equivalent price at a legal temperature of 60F and pressure of 15.025 psia?

Petroleum Engineering-Applied Reservior Engineering problem.

Explanation / Answer

Converting the unit,

60F = 288.7 K

80F =299.8 K

Using ideal gas equation, lets compare the number of moles

n1/n2 = P1T2/(P2 T1)

=14.4*299.8/(15.025*288.7)

= 0.99529

Equivalent price R2 = R1*n2/n1

= 1.1/0.99529

=$ 1.1052 per MCF
