Abstract
Overburden stress is applied to a core rock sample in a sleeve. Pressure is applied to pores in the core rock sample. An overburden fluid pressure indicative of the overburden stress and pore fluid pressure indicative of the pore pressure is measured. A difference between the overburden fluid pressure and pore fluid pressure is determined. The measuring and determination of the difference is repeated over a period of time. A rate of change of the difference over the period of time is determined. An indication of the rate of change meeting a threshold level is output indicative of the overburden stress transferring into and throughout the core rock sample.
