The critical S<sub>w</sub> value is different for each port type. Curve A in Figure 9-28 represents rocks with macroporosity. It has a critical S<sub>w</sub> less than 20%. Curve B represents a rock (continued) with mesoporosity. Mesoporous rocks have a critical S<sub>w</sub> of 20–60%. Curve C represents rocks with microporosity. They have a critical S<sub>w</sub> of 60–80%.

The table below summarizes representative critical S<sub>w</sub> values for macro-, meso-, and micropore types that correspond to A, B, and C, respectively, in [[:file:predicting-reservoir-system-quality-and-performance_fig9-28.png|Figure 3]].
The table below summarizes representative critical S<sub>w</sub> values for macro-, meso-, and micropore types that correspond to A, B, and C, respectively, in Figure 9-28.
