the measure of the fluid volume present in the pore volume of a porous medium

the ratio of the fluid volume to the pore volume

amount of stored water; water volume / pore volume

oil volume / pore volume

gas volume / pore volume

the storing capacity

Similar to porosity, saturation can be presented as either ____________________, but remember that it should always be used as a ____________ in calculation.

types of fluid saturation

include conventional core analysis techniques (part of RCAL) such as extraction methods

(retort distillation and Dean-Stark method)

include electrical properties and capillary pressure
