What is Understanding Porosity in Rocks about?

This document defines porosity and discusses different types of porosity in rock. It defines porosity as the ratio of pore volume to bulk volume. Primary porosity exists between grains or crystals, while secondary porosity exists in fractures, vugs or cavities. Total porosity includes all voids, while effective porosity only includes interconnected voids that allow fluid flow. An example calculation demonstrates determining porosity from weight and volume measurements of a saturated versus dry rock sample.
