Description	Petroleum reservoir fluids may exist solely in gas phase, liquid phase, equilibrated gas-liquid phases, or in some rare cases as a solid phase, depending upon the prevalent pressure and temperature conditions in the subsurface formations. During depletion, an original gas phase (reservoir gas) in the reservoir may form a liquid phase (retrograde liquid), or the liquid (reservoir oil) may form a gas phase, or the fluids may be produced in the original state in which they exist in the reservoir. This particular state of the hydrocarbon mixture both in the reservoir and on the surface (i.e., gas, liquid, gas + liquid) is primarily dictated or is a result of the pertinent pressure and temperature conditions that exist in these locations. However, as stated in Chapter 10, these petroleum reservoir fluids are generally complex mixtures of a number of hydrocarbons (paraffins, naphthenes, and aromatics) and even some nonhydrocarbon components. Therefore, the state of reservoir fluids as gas, liquid, or solid is actually controlled by not only the prevailing pressure and temperature conditions but also the chemistry and composition of a given system. Hence, the domain in which petroleum reservoir fluids behave in a certain fashion is defined by pressure, temperature, chemistry, and composition. Or, in other words, the state of a system is fully defined when pressure, temperature, composition, and chemistry are specified. Book Name: Petroleum Reservoir Rock and Fluid Properties
