Corrected HPHT geopressure gradient for drillers

The standard conversion method leads drillers to believe that deeper reservoir’s pressure in ppg mwe decreases, whereas measured values in psi increase with depth. This presentation shows an alternative method of converting pressure from psi to ppg mwe in HPHT reservoirs to avoid the inverted gradient slope.
