11.1 End-to-End Worked Example

The main worked example supplied covers a complete workflow, from acquiring a sample to characterizing it. All the data objects, and multiple key types and sub-classes within them are used to show how this workflow comes together in a typical scenario. Figure 11.1-1 shows the worked example workflow.

In a fluid sample acquisition job, two samples are taken from a fluid system, filling two fluid sample containers. One sample is invalid and destroyed. The other sample is split by having a water sample removed. The hydrocarbon phase and the water phase are then sent for appropriate fluid analyses. The hydrocarbon is then characterized using compositional models, and tabular output is generated from black oil models,
