Sampling Services

Defining reservoir fluid characteristics for optimal field development planning and production strategies.

APCO's PVT and fluid analysis services provide the essential data required to understand reservoir behavior, forecast production, and design surface facilities. We ensure the integrity of your samples from the field to the laboratory.

Our PVT & Fluid Analysis Services

We offer end-to-end services, from precise sample acquisition to detailed laboratory studies and reporting.
PVT Laboratory Studies:

• Constant Composition Expansion (CCE) -Determining bubble/dew point pressure.

• Differential Liberation (DL) – Studying oil behavior below bubble point.

• Constant Volume Depletion (CVD) – Analyzing gas condensate reservoir behavior.

Representative Sampling:

Downhole (using wireline) and surface (from separator) sampling.

Compositional Analysis:

Detailed breakdown of hydrocarbon components and impurities.

Flow Assurance Studies:

Wax and asphaltene precipitation analysis for pipeline and facility design.

Water Analysis:

Comprehensive analysis of produced water for scaling tendency and injection compatibility.

  • Our Quality Assurance

    Chain of Custody:

     Meticulous documentation from the point of sampling to lab delivery.

    Partner Laboratories:

     We work with internationally accredited PVT labs for precise results.

    Data Validation:

     Cross-checking field data with lab results to ensure sample representativeness.

  • Key Deliverables

    Certified PVT laboratory reports with all experimental data.

    Fluid characterization models compatible with major reservoir simulation software.

    Summary reports with clear conclusions and recommendations for facility design and reservoir management.
