Abstract
Fluid pressure detection and porosity evaluation from well logs are largely based
on an assumed relationship between high fluid pressures and high porosities due to
undercompaction. However, few data have been presented which demonstrate to what extent
porosities are higher in overpressured than in normally pressured shales of similar type,
and how this porosity difference is detected by the responses from standard logs. Jurassic
intra-reservoir shales on Haltenbanken (offshore mid-Norway) are particularly well-suited
for such an investigation because (a) the area is subdivided into two, major, distinctive
pressure regimes (one normally pressured, the other highly overpressured) and (b) the
lithology, depositional environment and present burial depth do not vary significantly
across the area.
