, 20:19, 30 June 2014→Geostatic variables
Three variables determine geostatic pressure:
Three variables determine geostatic pressure:
* Densities of formation waters as related to salinities
* [[Wikipedia:Density|Densities]] of formation waters as related to [[Wikipedia:Salinity|salinities]]
* Net thickness of different lithologies, e.g., sandstone, shale, limestone
* [[Net thickness]] of different lithologies, e.g., [[sandstone]], [[shale]], [[Carbonate|limestone]]
* Porosities of different lithologies
* [[Porosity|Porosities]] of different lithologies
