These logs do not measures porosity directly. To
accurately calculate porosity, the analyst must
know:
•Formation lithology
• Fluid in pores of sampled reservoir volume

POROSITY FROM DENSITY LOG

Fluid density equation
f mf Sxo h 1 Sxo
We usually assume the fluid density (f) is between 1.0 and 1.1. If gas is present, the
actual f will be < 1.0 and the calculated porosity will be too high.
mf is the mud filtrate density, g/cc
h is the hydrocarbon density, g/cc
Sxo is the saturation of the flush/zone, decimal

EXAMPLE
Calculate porosity. Does this value agree with density and neutron
logs?
Assume a matrix travel time, tm = 51.6 sec/ft. In addition, assume the formation is
saturated with water having a tf = 189.0 sec/ft.
