Summary
Archie's Law
is a
Foundational principle in petrophysics
that relates the
Electrical conductivity of a rock
to its porosity and the
Conductivity of the fluid
filling its pores. It is crucial for estimating the
Water saturation in hydrocarbon reservoirs
, thereby aiding in the
Assessment of oil and gas reserves
.
