Objectives
Shale - Chemical nature
Contribution to wellbore instability
Impact on mechanical response
Sensitivity to other properties
25. 3/2/2019 25
Case 3: Time Propagation of the pore pressures
generated (when mud activity < Pore fluid activity)
Saturation of Shale ↓ with increase in time (stability ↑)
26. 3/2/2019 26
Case 4: Sensitivity of the pore pressures generated to
mechanical properties of the formation
Pore Pressure Vs distance ratio (varying G ∝ 1/ ν)
27. 3/2/2019 27
Pore Pressure Vs distance ratio (varying K ∝ ν)
Limits for Pierre Shales = 300 – 13000 MPa
28. 3/2/2019 28
Pore Pressure Vs Distance ratio (varying Poisson’s ratio)
The phenomena is sensitive only to differential volumetric ratio
29. 3/2/2019 29
Sensitivity of the Pore Pressures generated to
Petrophysical and Surface Charge properties

Membrane Efficiency Vs CEC (varying porosities > 30%)
Changes in ME is more sensitive for higher porosities
Higher porosities affect ME even if CEC is high
31. 3/2/2019 31
Pore pressure Vs distance ratio (varying porosities)
Osmosis is counter checked by Diffusion at higher porosities
30% porosity - threshold value for Pierre Shales
32. 3/2/2019 32
Pore pressure Vs distance ratio (varying Cation Exchange
Capacity)
Osmosis is counter checked by Diffusion at lower CEC
33. 3/2/2019 33
Pore pressure Vs distance ratio (varying Permeability)
Low permeable formations least affected if mud activity >
shale activity as pore pressure propagation is slower

Code Verification
Type 1: Comparing the analytical solutions with results
of Nguyen et al., (2008)
Pore pressure Vs Distance Ratio (Poroelastic &
Porochemoelastic models)
The matching between the
results is excellent
