A Study of the Capillary Pressure-Hydrodynamic Relationship to Soil Accumulation in Stratigraphic Traps
The object of the work described in this paper was to increase the understanding of the relation that capillary pressure of a rock, hydrodynamics, and accumulation of oil in stratigraphic traps have to one another. The hydrodynamic oil-water tilt equation is derived by considering the two vector gradients involved: (1) buoyancy of oil in water and (2) hydraulic gradient.
