Pressure-Depth Plots
Pressure-Depth Plots
(OP)
Hi,
I am wondering what causes the slope to change when an oil-water contact occurs on a pressure-depth plot. the oil has a certain slope and the water has a certain slope and when they meet, a difference in slopes is seen. why is that? i'm thinking it involves Bernoulli but I'm not sure!
Thanks in advance for any help!

Some thought is required in posing a question that doesn't show your total lack of understanding of the basic principles of your profession. You really should write the static gradient equation and Bernoulli's equation on a sheet of paper and try to figure out what one has to do with the other and what either has to do with your question. I'll give you a hint, the density in the gradient equation is not an effective density it is a product density.

Although my answer to the question "what the f**k are you doing with that hose?" on my first ever hitch was pretty dumb:
"I'm filling up the moonpool!"
Certainly beats looking for the key to the V door, eh?
