Elastic capacity of aquifer to expand into oil reservoir or gas reservoir due to reservoir pressure depletion:
B = \frac{\theta}{\pi} \cdot A_e \cdot h \cdot \phi \cdot c_t |
where
| central angle of net pay area ↔ aquifer contact | |
| net pay area | |
| aquifer effective thickness | |
| aquifer porosity | |
| aquifer total compressibility | |
| aquifer pore compressibility | |
| aquifer water compressibility |
