Abstract
The disclosed embodiments include systems and methods to perform in-situ analysis of reservoir fluids. In some embodiments, the system includes a first vial containing a first insulating cylinder having a first internal cavity for storing electrolytes, a capillary tube, and a first sealable end having a first seal that prevents the electrolytes that are stored in the first internal cavity from flowing through the first sealable end while the first seal remains intact. The system also includes a second vial containing a second insulating cylinder having a second internal cavity for receiving the electrolytes that are stored in the first insulating cylinder, and a second sealable end having a second seal. The system further includes a tube positioned between the first vial and the second vial, where the tube provides at least one fluid flow path between the first vial and the second vial.
