Least principal stress as function of depth in Gulf of Mexico (Hubbert and Willis)

Input(s)

Sv: Vertical Overburden Stress (psi)

Pp: Pore Pressure in Reservoir (psi)

Output(s)

Shmin\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{hmin}}: Minimum Principal Stress in Reservoir (psi)

Formula(s)

Shmin=0.3( SvPp)+Pp\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{hmin}}=0.3 *(\mathrm{~Sv}-\mathrm{Pp})+\mathrm{Pp}
