Attention : John Elgar
Dear Sir,
Subject : Reservoir Fluid Study: well: Eremor-1 (OML-46); our file: RFLN 20050018.
On the 21st June 2005, two pressurised SSB, two 25L dead oil and three 500cc dead oil samples collected from the
subject well were delivered to our Port Harcourt laboratory for analysis. Instructions were received to transfer the two
SSB samples and perform validation analysis which consisted of sample restoration and compositional analysis. Upon
review of the data one of the pressurised samples was selected for full PVT analysis. Presented in the following report
are the results of the analyses requested.
The samples were transferred into Core Lab storage cylinders and the empty SSB chambers were returned to
Schlumberger on the 15th July 2005. On the 18th August 2005 Core Lab were instructed to drain the contents of the
bottomhole samples into a 1 litre IATA can and despatch the crude oil sample to Core Lab's Aberdeen facility for assay
analyses. The storage cylinders were removed from rental to Excel Exploration on the 19th August 2005.
CoreLab Nigeria Limited are very pleased to have been of service to Excel Exploration and Production Company
Limited in this work. Should any questions arise concerning the data presented in this report, or if CoreLab Nigeria
Limited may be of assistance in any other matter, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Yours sincerely,

Summary of Analysis Methods
Sample Validation
The SSB cylinders were maintained in single phase at 5000 psig at all times and the cylinders subject to heat
treatment to 200°F. The samples were stabilised for 24 hours with thorough agitation to ensure any precipitated solids
re-dissolved in solution. The samples were then transferred into Core Lab cylinders for long term storage.
A portion (50 cc) of each reservoir fluid sample was charged into a high pressure visual cell and thermally expanded to
the reservoir temperature. A partial constant composition expansion was carried out during which the bubble point
pressure was determined.
Compositional Analysis
The composition of each sample was determined using a combination of flash separation and gas chromatography
techniques. Each fluid was flashed at a controlled temperature (120°F) and separated into oil and gas components.
The gas was analysed using extended gas chromatography and the flashed oil by temperature programmed
chromatography. The two analyses were then mathematically recombined to the flash gas-oil ratio.
Constant Composition Expansion

A portion of the selected reservoir fluid sample was charged to a high pressure visual cell and thermally expanded to
the reservoir temperature. A constant composition expansion was carried out during which the bubble point pressure
was determined and pressure-volume data for the single phase and two phase fluid were measured. The density of
the single phase fluid was determined by weighing measured volumes pumped from the cell at 5000 psig. Density
data for other pressures were calculated using the volumetric data.
Differential Vaporisation
This was carried out in the high pressure visual cell at reservoir temperature following the constant composition
expansion. At several pressure stages, below the observed saturation pressure, the sample was stabilised. The gas
evolved was then pumped out of the cell and the volume, compressibility and composition were determined. The final
stage was carried out at atmospheric pressure when the residual liquid was pumped out of the cell and its density and
composition were determined.
Viscosity
This was measured in a Electromagnetic viscometer (EMV) at reservoir temperature. The instrument contains two
magnetic coils inside a stainless steel body. A low mass stainless steel piston inside the measurement chamber is
magnetically forced back and forth in the fluid. The time required for the piston to move a fixed distance is then very
accurately related to the viscosity of the fluid in the chamber by use of calibration constants. Viscosity measurements
were carried out over a wide range of pressures from above the reservoir pressure to saturation pressure.
The measurements were repeated at each pressure stage until five successive results agreed to within 0.5% of each
other.
After discussions with Excel Exploration we were requested not to perform any two phase viscosity measurements
during this study.
Separator Test
A single stage separator test was carried out using a pressurised test separator cell. A portion of the sample, at a
pressure above saturation pressure, was pumped into the separator cell and stabilised at the pressure and
temperature required for the first stage separation. The gas evolved was pumped out of the cell and the volume and
composition were determined. The final stage was carried out at atmospheric pressure and 60°F and the density of
the residual liquid was determined.

Notes
Core Lab carried out some investigations into the level of contamination present in the dead oil samples and
estimate the level to be around ~10 Wt%. This was calculated using our mud contamination spreadsheet which can
mathematically back out contamination within fluids using the gas chromatography analyses. In this case we used a
typical diesel composition for the purposes of the contaminant.
On the basis of our findings Core Lab suggested that the level of contamination was too high to merit using these
samples for crude assay analyses.

The gas mole % compositions were calculated from the measured weight % compositions using the most detailed analysis
results, involving as many of the above components as were identified. The reported component mole % compositions were
then sub-grouped into the generic carbon number components.

Predicting Phase Behaviour of Condensate/Crude Oil Systems Using Methane Interaction Coefficients
- D.L. Katz & A. Firoozabadi.
Note :
The residue mole weight and density values ( eg heptanes plus, undecanes plus, eicosanes plus) are calculated so that the
calculated average mole weights and densities correspond with the measured values. This can lead to anomalous residue mole
weights and densities where the Katz and Firoozabadi values may not be suitable for the isomer groups detected.
