NEW APPROACH FOR COMPACTION PREDICTION IN OIL RESERVOIRS
As reservoir fluids are produced, pore pressure decreases and compacting rock loses capacity to support the overburden pressure, while the effective stress increases rapidly leading to pore collapse. Reservoir can elastically compact itself until pore pressure drops to the elastic limit, then initia...
