There is a statistical correlation between absolute permeability
and formation porosity which can be approximated by various permeability-porosity models.Absolute permeability stays constant for small pressure variations but in a wide range of pressure variations the dependence on ambient pressure
can not be neglected and should be tabulated from laboratory core tests or estimated from permeability-pressure correlations. See also
