Porosity and permeability are fundamental rock properties. Porosity is a measure of the storage capacity of the rock and permeability is a measure of rock flow capacity. Storage capacity tells us how much resource can be contained in the rock, and flow capacity tells us how fast one can produce the resource. Pore volume compression coincided with extensive oil and water production and corresponding pressure reduction in producing formations. Pore spaces in reservoir rock are occupied by fluid phases, including oil, water, and gas phases. Darcy found that flow rate is proportional to the pressure change between the inlet and outlet of the porous medium. Pore pressure decreases in the formation as fluid is withdrawn from the formation during production. The chapter considers the features of permeability heterogeneity. Layer inclination depends on the local depositional environment and geological events such as folding and tectonic activity. In the current work the properties of reservoir has been effectively reported, which could be the main parameters for assessing the potential of inflow.
