Abstract

Methods for determining in situ the value of a formation fluid parameter using a downhole fluid analysis (DFA) tool. The methods utilize advanced statistical learning tools to build a predictive model to estimate a fluid property given a set of input parameters. In one embodiment the fluid saturation pressure parameter is determined by using the DFA tool to obtain the fluid and to obtain weight fractions of at least C, C, and COof the fluid. The weight fractions and a reservoir temperature are input into a trained statistical learning machine to obtain a determination of the saturation pressure of the fluid.
