The total compressibility of oil saturated formation

LaTeX Math Block

alignmentleft
c_t = \frac{1}{V_{\phi}} \frac{\partial V_{\phi}}{\partial p} = c_r + s_{wi} c_w + (1-s_{wi})c_o

and can be split into rock, water, oil components:

LaTeX Math Block

alignmentleft
c_t = c_r + s_{wi} c_w + (1-s_{wi})c_o 


For low compressible oil, the total compressibility can be assumed constant

LaTeX Math Inline
bodyc_t = \rm const
and the volume reduction can be related to pressure decline as:

LaTeX Math Block
anchor1
alignmentleft
\frac{\delta V_\phi}{V_\phi} = c_t \, \delta p = c_t \, (p_i - p_{wf \, min})


LaTeX Math Block

alignmentleft
\delta V_\phi = Q_o \, B_o

and

LaTeX Math Block
anchor1
alignmentleft
V_o = s_o \, V_\phi = (1-s_{wi}) \, V_\phi

hence

LaTeX Math Block
anchor1
alignmentleft
\frac{Q_o \, B_o \, (1-s_{wi})}{V_o} = c_t \, (p_i - p_{wf \, min})

and

LaTeX Math Block

EUR =  \frac{Q_o}{V_o} =  \frac{ (p_i - p_{wf \, min}) \, c_t}{(1-s_{wi})\, B_o}
