Application of Rock Mechanics Parameters to Obtain Formation Pressure

Article Preview

Abstract:

Using triaxial tests of rock mechanics on stress testing instrument to analyze the results of its parameters, and obstained the the region that was consistent with the transformation between static and dynamic rock mechanics, the relationship between formation pore pressure and rock mechanical parameters, the pressure profile in the basis of rock mechanics parameters, etc. Combination of logging information and data, the method was identified which was in line with the use of rock mechanics parameters to strike a formation pressure. Using this method, I have analysised the formation pressure profiles of several wells in a block, and established the corresponding formation pressure detection section and the section of rock mechanics. The tested pressure and the measured pressure were compared more than 85% accuracy.
