N2 - A previously developed viscosity model based on the Significant Structure Theory (Cruz-Reyes et al., 2005) was modified for the accurate correlation and/or prediction of viscosity of reservoir fluids varying from low to high molar masses and over wide temperature and pressure ranges; 65-1,300 K, and 1-1,000 bar, respectively. Viscosity modeling was conducted for typical reservoir fluids including N2, CO2, H2S, C 1, C2, C3, iC4, C4, and from C5 to C18. The viscosity modeling performance of the present approach was assessed during the representation of experimental viscosities of the aforementioned reservoir fluids obtaining highly satisfactory results.
