Making Sense of Gas-Oil Ratio in Unconventional Reservoirs

摘要

"On any given day, when you look at it over the life of the well," said AAPG member Steve Jones, "Gas/oil ratio behavior is different in unconventional reservoirs than in conventional reservoirs." To fully understand, then, the meaning of GOR, which is the ratio of the volume of gas that comes out of solution to the volume of oil at standard conditions, especially as it relates to unconventional wells, will require a new understanding.
