The rate of shale compaction or porosity reduction decreases with increase in burial or compaction. This may be caused by decreasing shale permeability and increasing water viscosity, thus decreasing rate of fluid expulsion with increasing compaction. For a given increase in overburden pressure, the pressure or stress applied to a given grain-to-grain contact area decreases with burial because the contact area increases with compaction and concomitant grain deformation. This may also cause the reduced rate of compaction with increase in burial. The above observations may suggest that the shale compaction is primarily controlled by physical forces of sedimentary rocks.
