Waxman and Smits model - Clean sands

Input(s)

F: Shaly-Sand Formation Resistivity Factor (dimensionless)

Øe: Effective Porosity (fraction)

\(\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{cl}}\): Clay Exchange Cation Conductivity \((1 / \Omega \mathrm{m})\)

\(\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{w}}\): Formation Water Conductivity \((1 / \Omega \mathrm{m})\)

Output(s)

\(\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{o}}\): Brine Saturated Rock Conductivity \((1 / \Omega \mathrm{m})\)

Formula(s)

\[ \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{o}}=\left(\frac{1}{\mathrm{~F}}\right) *\left(\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{cl}}+\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{w}}\right) \]
