Water saturation of a reservoir is a function of height above free water (''h'') and pore type. S<sub>w</sub> interpretations should be made accounting for h, r<sub>35</sub>, and pore throat size distribution in the reservoir. The Archie equation is the most widely used method of determining S<sub>w</sub>.
This section discusses how to calculate S<sub>w</sub> from the Archie equation using various numerical and graphical techniques and how to interpret the results.
