Table 2. Comparison of Characteristics of Several Commonly Used Methods for Determining MMP.

Laboratory Methods Advantages Disadvantages
STT International common determination method. More accurate. Repeatability. Time consuming. Require higher precision of the instrument.
RBA Rapid determination of MMP. Require lower precision of the instrument. Seriously affected by human factors. When the temperature is lower than 40 °C, the error is large. Reliability needs to be verified.
VIT Experimental time is short. Suitable for high-temperature and -pressure state. Seriously affected by human factors. Application limitations.
CT Adjust the temperature. Observe MMP intuitively. High cost. Potential health risks.
SRM Avoid radiation exposure. Reduce health risks. MMP can be measured only when the constant temperature pressure is increased.
MRI Measure density of hydrocarbon fluid. Experimental equipment consumes too much electricity. High cost.
FFBM Determination time is short. MMP can be determined at the nanometer scale. There can be no human intervention.
VDM Direct determination of the relationship between the density and the pressure of the injected gas. Limitation is large. Only the MMP at low temperature can be measured.
