    Sufficient literature has been published about Pre-Darcy flow in non-petroleum disciplines. Investigators dissent about the significance of deviation of Darcy’s Law at very low fluid velocities. Most of their investigations are based on coarse, unconsolidated porous media with an aqueous fluid. However little has been published regarding the same for consolidated oil and gas reservoirs. If a significant departure from Darcy’s Law is observed, then this could have multiple implications on: reservoir limit tests, under prediction of reserves, unrecognized prospecting opportunities etc. This study aims to perform a comprehensive review of the literature; and to experimentally demonstrate that the Pre-Darcy flow effect is significant in petroleum rocks. ..
