Article history: Oil formation volume factor (OFVF) is considered one of the main parameters required to characterize the

Artificial neural network form a new empirical equation for OFVF prediction. In this paper we present a new empirical correlation
extracted from ANN based on 760 experimental data points for different oils with different compositions.
The results obtained showed that the ANN model yielded the highest correlation coefficient (0.997)
and lowest average absolute error (less than 1%) for OFVF prediction as a function of the specific gravity
of gas, the dissolved gas to oil ratio, the oil specific gravity, and the temperature of the reservoir
compared with ANFIS and SVM. The developed empirical equation from the ANN model outperformed
the previous empirical correlations and AI models for OFVF prediction. It can be used to predict the OFVF
with a high accuracy.

data. It is clear that the data range of the input parameters of the
testing data is within the range of the training data to be sure of the
accuracy of the developed model.
Fig. 5 shows that, ANN model was able to predict the OFVF with
a correlation coefficient of 0.997 and an average absolute error of
0.93%. ANFIS was able to predict the OFVF with a correlation co-
efficient of 0.993 and an average absolute error of 1.16%. While SVM
was able to predict the OFVF with a correlation coefficient of 0.960
and an average absolute error of 3.67%, Fig. 5. Fig. 6 shows that for
the testing data (228 data points), the ANN yielded a coefficient of
determination (R2) of 0.99 for predicting the OFVF and ANFIS and
SVM yielded R2 of 0.99 and 0.92, respectively.
It can be concluded that ANN model was able to predict the
OFVF based on the specific gravity of gas (gg), the dissolved gas to
oil ratio (Rs), the oil specific gravity (API), and the temperature of
the reservoir (Tf) with higher accuracy than ANFIS and SVM. The
correlation coefficient was around 0.997 and the average absolute
