Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of geological exploration, in particular to a method for calculating the pore pressure of carbonate formations based on the rock compressibility coefficient. Background technique
[0002] Prediction of formation pore pressure is of great significance to conventional oil and gas exploration, evaluation of unconventional oil and gas sweet spots, and oil and gas development. More accurate prediction of formation pore pressure is also crucial to drilling safety and cost-effectiveness.
[0003] In the past, the empirical methods that have been widely used and have good results for the prediction of formation pore pressure include: the equivalent depth method using porosity and acoustic logging data, and the Eaton (1972) formula using acoustic and resistivity logging data. Using the Fillippone (1979) formula method of seismic layer velocity, the Eberhart-Phillips model (1989) and the Bowers model (1995) by establishing the ...
