  2. Pore pressure gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pore_pressure_gradient

    Saltwater is 0.444 psi/ft (2.5% higher than fresh water but this not general and depends on salt concentration in water) Pore pressure in the rock could be as high as 1.0 psi/ft of depth (19.25 lb/gal) A well with 5,000 feet of seawater and 15,000 feet of rock could have an overburden pressures at the bottom as high as 17,220 psi (5000 * 0.444 ...

  3. Pound per square inch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound_per_square_inch

    The pound per square inch (abbreviation: psi) or, more accurately, pound-force per square inch (symbol: lbf/in 2), [1] is a unit of measurement of pressure or of stress based on avoirdupois units and used primarily in the United States. It is the pressure resulting from a force with magnitude of one pound-force applied to an area of one square ...

  4. Pressure gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_gradient

    The pressure gradient is defined only at these spatial scales at which pressure (more generally fluid dynamics) itself is defined. Within planetary atmospheres (including the Earth's ), the pressure gradient is a vector pointing roughly downwards, because the pressure changes most rapidly vertically, increasing downwards (see vertical pressure ...

  6. Pressure measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_measurement

    Differential pressure sensors are used to measure many properties, such as pressure drops across oil filters or air filters, fluid levels (by comparing the pressure above and below the liquid) or flow rates (by measuring the change in pressure across a restriction). Technically speaking, most pressure sensors are really differential pressure ...
