Abstract
Summary
Cementation factor (m) is one of the Archie's parameters which is used for estimation of fluid saturation in oil reservoirs. Many researchers have presented several correlations and classification methods for estimation of m. In this study, 16 carbonate rock samples were used for determination of m by different empirical correlations and several classification methods. Results revealed that using correlations generate large errors in prediction of cementation factor. Furthermore, it is concluded that Rezaee et al. and Soleymanzadeh et al. methods of classification are proper techniques to categorize electrical data, because these two methods consider physics of electricity transmission through rock samples.
