Gascap Drive Index Material Balance Solver is developed primarily to offer assistance to petroleum engineers, reservoir engineers, researchers, petroleum production engineers, drilling engineers, completion engineers, petrophysicists, petroleum geologists, students (undergraduates, postgraduates, etc.), and other oil and gas professionals evaluate reservoir drive (gas-cap drive index) contrubutions to the production of fluids from the reservoir.
Reservoir drive mechanism is a term often used to describe the prevailing force or forces that drive (push) the production of reservoir fluids (oil, gas, etc.).
Gascap Drive Index Material Balance Solver is a valuable tool for evaluation of reservoir drive (gas-cap drive index) contributions to the production of fluids from the reservoir.
Gascap Drive Index Material Balance Solver is complementary tool in the toolkit of the engineer for petroleum reservoir calculations and analyses.
Input parameters for Gascap Drive Index Material Balance Solver include:
N=>oil initially in place, stb

Bti=>two-phase formation volume factor at initial reservoir pressure, rb/stb
Bt=>two-phase formation volume factor, rb/stb
Bgi=>gas formation volume factor at initial reservoir pressure, rb/scf
Bg=>gas formation volume factor at current reservoir pressure, rb/scf
Rp=>cumulative produced gas oil ratio, scf/stb
Rsi=>Solution GOR at initial reservoir pressure, scf/stb.
