Abstract
A device and method is described to parallelize a pressure-volume-temperature (“PVT”) analysis using gas chromatography and mass spectrometry techniques such that a portion of the pressure, temperature and volume analysis is performed separately from others. The resulting PVT data is then recombined statistically for a complete PVT analysis. The device may also obtain compositional data of the fluid to perform an equation of state analysis or reservoir simulations.
