Abstract: A method of estimating dissolution progress of a salt in construction of a salt cavern includes: defining, for each of a plurality of parameters, an operable range of respective parameter and an average value of the operable range of respective parameter; performing a plurality of flooding tests, by varying one particular parameter among the plurality of parameters from a lowest value to a highest value in the operable range of the one particular parameter and keeping all other parameters at the average value of respective parameter; and obtaining an analytical relationship of a mass of dissolved salt versus the one particular parameter.
