Contact definitions and relationship of contacts in a pool (right) to reservoir capillary pressure and fluid production curves (left). The free water surface is the highest elevation with the same oil and water pressure (zero capillary pressure). The oil-water contact corresponds to the displacement pressure (DP) on the capillary pressure curve. The transition zone is the interval with co-production of water and hydrocarbons. The fraction of co-produced water is shown by the dashed line on the left. The gas-oil contact is controlled by the volume of gas in the trap, not the capillary properties.
