Investigating the summary tables reveals that correlations are developed
either as individual correlations for a particular PVT property, or as groups
(families) of correlations developed from the same dataset for several PVT
properties (e.g., Al-Marhoun, Hanafy et al., Petrosky and Farshad, Standing,
