In this paper we propose a new finite element discretization for the two-field formulation of poroelasticity which uses the elastic displacement and the pore pressure as primary variables. The main goal is to develop a numerical method with small problem sizes which still achieve key features such as parameter-robustness, local mass conservation, and robust preconditionor construction. For this we combine a nonconforming finite element and the interior over-stabilized enriched Galerkin methods with a suitable stabilization term. Robust a priori error estimates and parameter-robust preconditioner construction are proved, and numerical results illustrate our theoretical findings.
