PVDS

Recognised by the OPM Flow parserPROPS

PVDS defines the solvent PVT properties for use with SOLVENT option. The solvent is treated as an additional dry gas phase within the model. This keyword should only be used if the SOLVENT model has been invoked in the RUNSPEC section.

Notes:

The keyword is followed by NTPVT tables as declared on the TABDIMS keyword in the RUNSPEC section.

Each table must contain a minimum of two rows and a maximum of NPPVT rows as declared on the TABDIMS keyword in the RUNSPEC section.

Each table is terminated by a “/” and there is no “/” terminator for the keyword.

Records
Fixed number of records
Variadic
The record accepts a variable number of items

The above example defines two solvent PVT tables assuming NTPVT equals two and NPPVT is greater than or equal to 16 on the TABDIMS keyword in the RUNSPEC section.
There is no terminating “/” for this keyword.
