150  PVT Property Correlations


            temperature is defined by the amount of gas available to go into solution
            (and the capacity of the oil to dissolve the gas). Above the bubble-point pres-
            sure, the gas in solution is constant. Fig. 7.3 represents the solution GOR.
            The unit that is often used for solution GOR is scf/STB. At surface (theoreti-
            cally, at the standard pressure and temperature), all gas comes out of solu-
            tion, and therefore, the solution GOR is equal to zero.
