    Fig. 5 shows how parameters like rate of penetration (ROP), drilling exponent, shale cutting density, and total gas vary with pore pressure and depth, giving indications of transitions between normally pressured and high-pressure zones. These measurements typically follow normal trends with depth in normally pressured formations, and attempts to directly calibrate them to pore pressure have been somewhat successful by establishing normal trends. When deviations from normal trends occur, basin- or region-specific correlations are used to estimate formation pore pressure, with experienced pore pressure engineers subjectively adding input to objective models based on experience.

    Fig. 5 indicates how trends of several parameters vary with pore pressure and depth.

    Monitoring and plotting these can give


    indications of the transition from normally pressured zones to geopressures. The ROP, drilling exponent, shale cutting
    density, and background total gas all follow a normal trend with depth. Attempts to calibrate these measurements directly to
    pore pressure have been somewhat successful and usually are on the basis of establishing the trend for normally pressured
    formations. When a deviation from the normal trend occurs, correlations specific to the basin or geographic region are used
    to estimate the formation pore pressure. Most logging companies offer pore pressure service, which requires experienced
    pore pressure engineers who, frequently through experience, add subjective input to the model as well as the objective
    parametric inputs.
