Abstract
The pore compressibility characteristics of some limestone samples obtained from a petroleum reservoir in Saudi Arabia were determined in the laboratory. The samples were saturated with water and subjected to hydrostatic confining pressure in a core holder, and the resulting reduction in pore volume was measured. The experimental data is presented here in the form of relative porosity and hydrostatic pore compressibility values as functions of NCP. The test results were analyzed after grouping the rock samples on the basis of their lithological description.
