Solubility of natural gas in water?
Solubility of natural gas in water?
(OP)
Hi,
I am working on tank venting estimates.
For oil I used Vasquez and Beggs correlation to calculate scf/STB vented.
I found a chart in a petroleum fluids book for water but am not sure what correlation it is. Any recommendation on a correlation to calculate gas vented from water? What about condensate?
Thanks.

RE: Solubility of natural gas in water?
For outgasing from natural gas dissolved in water you need to find a Henry's Law constant that covers the pressure ranges you are concerned with. Typically water can hold a pretty small amount of gas at gathering-system pressures and even less at atmospheric pressures, but to quantify it you need to input your pressures and temperatures into a real calculation.
