NET TO GROSS (N/G)

The ratio of porous and permeable rocks capable of producing

hydrocarbons to the total volume of rocks in the reservoir. In most
cases represented by the thicknesses of the reservoir and nonreservoir intervals.

Np = Oil Reserves (stb)

e = effectiveporosity(fraction)
So = Oil saturation(fraction)
h = productive interval thickness
(m/ft)
A= drainage area (acres)
r= Recovery Factor

BV- Bulk volume of the reservoir within the closure of the trap
N/G-Net to gross
-Porosity
Sw-Water saturation
RF-Recovery factor
FVF-Formation volume factor
