<strong>Compressibility</strong><br />
In general, the isothermal coefficient of compressibility of a material is<br />
defined as<br />
<strong>Compressibility</strong> is the ability of a soil or rock to reduce in volume<br />
with applied pressure.<br />
A measure of the relative volume change of a fluid or solid as<br />
a response to a presure (or mean stress) change.<br />

<strong>Compressibility</strong><br />
Reservoir rock is under stress.<br />
Internal stress by fluid in the pore<br />
(hydrostatic)<br />
External stresses by may have<br />
different values in different<br />
directions.<br />

• Types of compressibility<br />
Production of fluid from the<br />
pore will change the internal<br />
stress causes the resultant<br />
stress to change.<br />
The change in resultant<br />
stress will change the<br />
volumes of matrix, pore and<br />
bulk.<br />
In reservoir engineering the<br />
pore volume compressibility<br />
is more important.<br />

<strong>Compressibility</strong> <strong>measurement</strong><br />
Geertsma has stated that in a reservoir only the vertical<br />
component of hydraulic stress is constant and that the<br />
stress components in horizontal plane are characterized<br />
by the boundary condition that there is no bulk deformation<br />
in those directions.<br />
p<br />
Thus, the effective pore compressibility for<br />
reservoir rocks on the depletion of internal<br />
pressure is only one-half of that determined<br />
by this method.<br />

In summary, it can be stated that pore volume compressibility of<br />
consolidated sandstones are of the order of 5x10 -6 to 10x10 -6 psi -1<br />
(ABW)<br />
Typical values for formation compressibility range from<br />
3x10 -6 to 20x10 -6 psi -1 (Tarek Ahmed)<br />
