In this project, you are required to design an experimental apparatus and procedure to measure the

solubility of gas in a crude oil at different pressures.

You are given $50ml$ of a dead crude oil and a cylinder containing natural gas at $3000g.$ Using your

designed apparatus, describe in detail how you will measure the gas solubility $($in SCF$/$STB$)$ in the oil at

room temperature and at pressures starting from $40$ atm up to $200$ atm in $40-$atm increments.

Equipment available to you are:

a positive displacement pump

a $1-$liter transfer cell with internal disc

valves, pressure gauges, metal tubing

a gas$-$cylinder regulator with a range of $100-3000$ psig.

You must provide:

A detailed description of the apparatus with a schematic diagram.

A detailed, step$-$by$-$step description of the experimental procedure.

A sample calculation of the first two solubility values.
