Quantifies the amount of each component in a reservoir mixture, usually reported in mole fraction. Typical components in petroleum reservoir mixtures include the nonhydrocarbons N<sub>2</sub>, CO<sub>2</sub>, and H<sub>2</sub>S and the hydrocarbons C<sub>1</sub> C<sub>2</sub>, C<sub>3</sub> ''i''C<sub>4</sub> ''n''C<sub>4</sub>, ''i''C<sub>5</sub>, ''n''C<sub>5</sub>, C<sub>6</sub>, and C<sub>7+</sub> (C<sub>7+</sub>, or “heptanes-plus,” includes many hundreds of heavier compounds, such as paraffins, napthenes, and aromatics). Asphaltenes are also found in reservoir oils.
