n: pressure exceeding or falling below the pressure to be expected at a given depth. Normal pressure increases approximately 0.465 pow1ds per square inch per foot of depth or 10.5 kilopascals per metre of depth. Thus, normal pressure at 1,000 feet is 465 pounds per square inch;at 1,000 metres it is 10,500 kilopascals. See pressure gradient.

n: A formation pressure that deviates from the normal formation fluid hydrostatic pressure. Such pressure may be classified as "subnormal" (lower than normal) or "overpressured" (higher than normal).

n: The abnormal pressure per meter in depth, usually express as MPa/m. It is the reference
of density of the mud and the procedure of the casing design.

a pore pressure higher than a column of sea water for that true vertical depth.

n: a record of the measurement of porosity, done by comparing depth to the time it takes for a sonic impulse to travel through a given length of formation. The rate of travel of the sound wave through a rock depends on the composition of the formation and the fluids it contains. Because the type of formation can be ascertained by other logs, and because sonic transit time varies with relative amounts of rock and fluid, porosity can usually be determined in this way.

n: A display of traveltime of acoustic waves versus depth in a well. The term is commonly used as a synonym for a sonic log. Some acoustic logs display velocity.

n: a unit of volume often used in oil reservoir analysis, equivalent to the volume (as of oil or water) necessary to cover 1 acre to a depth of 1 foot

abbr: acre-foot.

one acre (43560 ft2) to a depth of one ft.

n: The correspondent curve of actual time from kicking down to completion and depth. Sometimes it includes the moving time.

along hole depth or measured depth.
