Comparison of Total and Effective Porosities
. Very clean sandstones: ϕt = ϕe
. Poorly to moderately well -cemented intergranular materials:
ϕt ≈ ϕe
. Highly cemented materials and most carbonates: ϕe < ϕt

Permeability
Permeability is a property of the porous medium and is a
measure of the capacity of the medium to transmit fluids.

Absolute Permeability
When the medium is completely saturated with one fluid, then the
permeability measurement is often referred to as specific or
absolute permeability.

Effective Permeability
When the rock pore spaces contain more than one fluid, then the
permeability to a particular fluid is called the effective
permeability.
Effective permeability is a measure of the fluid conductance
capacity of a porous medium to a particular fluid when the
medium is saturated with more than one fluid.

Relative Permeability
Relative permeability is defined as the ratio of the effective
permeability to a fluid at a given saturation to the effective
permeability to that fluid at 100% saturation.

Fluid Saturation
Saturation is defined as that fraction, or percent, of the pore
volume occupied by a particular fluid (oil, gas, or water).
total volume of the fluid

Applying the above mathematical concept of saturation to each
reservoir fluid gives

Fluid Saturation
The saturation of each individual phase ranges between zero to
100%. By definition, the sum of the saturations is 100%,
therefore
Sg + So + Sw = 1.0

Example
A core, 2.75 cm long and 2.75 cm in diameter has a porosity of
25%. It is saturated with oil and water, where the oil content is
1.8 cm3.
a) What is the pore volume of the core?
b) What are the oil and water saturations of the core?

Average porosity
Arithmetic average ϕ = Σϕi/n
Thickness-weighted average ϕ = Σϕihi/Σhi
Areal-weighted average ϕ = ΣϕiAi/ΣAi
Volumetric-weighted average ϕ = ΣϕiAihi/ΣAihi
where n = total number of core samples
hi = thickness of core sample i or reservoir area i
ϕi = porosity of core sample i or reservoir area i
Ai = reservoir area i
