Thermodynamic properties of multicomponent mixtures in phase equilibrium were studied. The tangent plane criterion was used for stability analysis, and the Gibbs energy minimization was employed for phase equilibrium calculation when the successive substitution didn't converge. Thermodynamic properties of a 12-component natural gas mixture in vapor-liquid equilibrium were calculated with highly accurate Helmholtz free energy equation of state GERG--2008, simplified GERG--2008 and common cubic Peng --- Robinson (PR) equation of state. Results show that in vapor-liquid equilibrium, GERG--2008 has high accuracy and works better than simplified GERG--2008 and PR-equation of state. Simplified GERG--2008 and PR-equation of state both work unsatisfactorily in vapor-liquid equilibrium calculation, especially near the saturation zone. The deviation function in GERG--2008 can significantly affect the accuracy of GERG--2008 when calculating thermodynamic properties of mixtures in vapor-liquid equilibrium
