A comprehensive overview of geopressure analysis explaining the mechanical and thermal processes that generate excess pore pressures. Providing a physical and geological basis for understanding geopressure, its prediction and detection, this is an ideal for geoscience students and researchers looking to understand and analyse geopressure.
Geopressure, or pore pressure in subsurface rock formations impacts hydrocarbon resource estimation, drilling, and drilling safety in operations. This book provides a comprehensive overview of geopressure analysis bringing together rock physics, seismic technology, quantitative basin modeling and geomechanics. It provides a fundamental physical and geological basis for understanding geopressure by explaining the coupled mechanical and thermal processes. It also brings together state-of-the-art tools and technologies for analysis and detection of geopressure, along with the associated uncertainty. Prediction and detection of shallow geohazards and gas hydrates is also discussed and field examples are used to illustrate how models can be practically applied. With supplementary MATLAB® codes and exercises available online, this is an ideal resource for students, researchers and industry professionals in geoscience and petroleum engineering looking to understand and analyse subsurface formation pressure.

Nader C. Dutta is a recognized industry expert on Geopressure and was the Senior Science Advisor of Schlumberger prior to retiring in 2015. He is currently a Visiting Scholar at the Geological Sciences Department, Stanford University, California. He is the Editor of SEG's book – Geopressure (1987), and has been a member of United Nations Environmental Program (UNEP) and USA-DOE Gas Hydrate Assessment Committee. Ran Bachrach is a Scientific Advisor for Schlumberger supporting both research and operations, and specializing in various geoscience topics including high-resolution geophysics, rock physics and geomechanics, 3D/4D imaging of subsurface processes, seismic inversion and seismic reservoir analysis. Tapan Mukerji is a Professor in the Department of Energy Resources Engineering, and by courtesy in the Departments of Geophysics and Geological Sciences at Stanford University, California. He received the Society of Exploration Geophysicists' Karcher Award in 2000, and shared the 2014 ENI award for pioneering innovations in theoretical and practical rock physics for seismic reservoir characterization. He is also a co-author of The Rock Physics Handbook (2020), Value of Information in Earth Sciences (2015), and Quantitative Seismic Interpretation (2010) published by Cambridge University Press.
