A study of pressurized underground storage cavities: Theoretical and laboratory investigations
TL;DR: In this paper, cylindrical models containing miniature reservoir cavities were fabricated for the experimental simulation of storage reservoir behavior, and the internal pressures necessary to cause reservoir failure were about 2·8-3·0 times those predicted on the expectation of failure occurring when the tangential tensile stresses exceed the tensile strength of the rock surrounding the cavity.
