Reservoir Storage

Created by Arthur Aslanyan (Nafta College), last modified on May 20, 2020

The ability of reservoir to accumulate pressure throughout the pore volume:

(1)	$\begin{array}{l}\displaystyle \gamma = c_t \cdot V_\phi = c_t \cdot \phi \cdot V_r =\beta \cdot V_r\end{array}$

where

$\begin{array}{l}{c_t}\end{array}$	total compressibility
$\begin{array}{l}V_\phi\end{array}$	pore volume
$\begin{array}{l}V_r\end{array}$	bulk rock volume
$\begin{array}{l}{\phi}\end{array}$	effective porosity
$\begin{array}{l}\beta\end{array}$	reservoir storativity
