ABSTRACT: In normal pressure of reservoir, formation pressure and depth can not
fully reflect the linear relationship between the formation pressure with
depth, the change rule of reservoir measured
formation pressure and often reduced pressure, understanding unclear
cause fluid properties. By introducing basic principles of hydrostatics. The
relationship between pressure coefficient and mathematical depth is discussed
by mathematical induction analysis of measured pressure data of nearly 50
normal pressure reservoirs in Bohai Oilfield. The results show that the
reservoir pressure data is linearly distributed with depth, and the pressure coefficient is inversely
proportional to depth. When the depth becomes shallower, the pressure
coefficient increases and approaches the reservoir level. As the depth
increases, the pressure coefficient decreases and approaches the hydrostatic
pressure coefficient infinitely. The study can more accurately analyze the
reservoir pressure changes, which is helpful to study the oil and water
distribution, reservoir connectivity and fluid properties of atmospheric
pressure reservoirs.
