    The document outlines several block diagram methods for determining water saturation in shaly sandstone formations using well log data: 1) No porosity log dual water method which uses resistivity, gamma ray, and shale properties to calculate water saturation. 2) Sonic porosity log automatic compensation method which uses sonic-derived porosity, resistivity, and shale properties. 3) Disperse clay method which uses sonic and density porosity, resistivity, and shale properties. 4) Additional methods outlined are Simandoux, Fertl, Dual water, and Clavier which all incorporate resistivity, porosity, shale, and density logs.
