The difference between phase pressures due to difference in fluids interaction with rock matrix:


LaTeX Math Block
anchorpcog
alignmentleft
p_{cog} = p_o - p_g



oil-gas capillary pressure


LaTeX Math Block
anchorpcow
alignmentleft
p_{cow} = p_o - p_w



oil-water capillary pressure


One of the strong assumptions in reservoir fluid dynamic modelling is that 3-phase capillary pressure is a function of one saturation only:


LaTeX Math Block
anchorNOGBY
alignmentleft
p_{cog} = p_{cog}(s_o)



a function of oil saturation only
