We provide two useful software tools for anyone working with formate brines. One is DensiCalcTM, the density and pressure calculator, and the other is PVTCalcTM, which provides fluid densities, compressibility data and thermal expansion coefficients.
DensiCalcTM calculates densities and pressures for the entire formate brine density range from 1.01 to 2.30 g/cm3/8.34 to 19.20 lb/gal. It utilises field-validated PVT data from PLT logs and surface-density readings to establish:
With this latest version of DensiCalcTM, you can work with as many as five wells simultaneously and also save data for future use. DensiCalcTM 6.00 is compatible with Windows 2000 or above and is entirely free to download and use.
Our unique and user friendly PVTCalcTM software calculates fluid density, compressibility and thermal expansion coefficients for potassium formate brines (1.00 to 1.57 g/cm3/ 8.3 to 13.1 lb/gal), blends of potassium and cesium formate brines (1.57 to 2.20 g/cm3/13.1 to
18.4 lb/gal, and cesium formate brines (2.20 to 2.30 g/cm3/18.4 to 19.2 lb/gal). Properties are calculated for temperatures up to 250°C (482°F) and pressures up to 30,000 psi (2,068 bar). The model used for these calculations is based on measured PVT data.
