                       Figure 4.27.  Correlation ofporosity with thegeometric mean grain diameter and the
                       formation factor [19J


                       Figure 4.26 can be expressed as:

                                                 2.75
                                                                                     (4.60)
                       k = 2.53 x  lo5 ( FR2:Lc2)


                         For a uniform grain-size distribution system, the standard deviation 02
                       k = 2.53 X  lo5 (z)                                           (4.61)
                       is zero and Equation 4.60 becomes:

                                            2.75



                         A correlation of porosity with respect to the formation resistivity and
                       geometric mean grain diameter, as shown in Figure 4.27, was developed
                       in the same study:

                       @=(&)                                                         (4.62)




                       where the porosity, @,  is expressed as a percentage. The straight line in
                       Figure 4.27 can be expressed as follows:

                                51
                       @=                                                            (4.63)
