Question

Petroleum reservoirs can contain a mixture of hydrocarbons (liquids, solids, and gases), water, and other compounds. The common fluid types in no particular order are condensate (retrograde gas), black oils, dry gas, volatile oils, and wet gas (rich gas). Assume that you have one barrel of each of these fluid types. (An oil barrel or bbl in the US and Canada is 42 US gallons or about 159 liters. Outside of the US and Canada, oil volumes are usually in cubic meters or in metric tonnes. Metric tonnes actually measure weight and not volume directly.) Place the petroleum fluid types in order by dragging each tag to its proper position. Order the barrels based on the total filled weight of each barrel at 25degree C and 14.5 pounds per square inch atmospheric pressure. To answer this question, you will need to conduct a search on the Internet for the reservoir types named.
