Reservoir-pressure and Volume of Dissolved Gas:

At a reservoir pressure 500 psi, the volume of gas dissolved in the oil should be at least twice as great as that obtained from the laboratory experiments with pressures around 250 psi.

Similarly,

At a reservoir pressure 1000 psi, the volume of gas dissolved in the oil should be at least twice as great as that obtained from the laboratory experiments with pressures around 500 psi.

Can we extend such a simple linear relation for elevated reservoir pressures as well (say, up to 15,000 psi)?

If not, when exactly the relation starts to break?
