Shale Corrections
The electrical properties of shales greatly
influence the calculation of fluid saturations.
A layer of water close to the clay surface is
electrically charged.
Archie's equation assumes that the formation
water is the only electrically-conductive material
in the formation.
The clay layer requires an additional term in the
saturation equation.
Porosity tools can be corrected for the shale
effect. An "effective porosity" can be computed
as compared to a "total porosity" which includes
the shale effect.

Shale Volume 1
The volume of shale must be computed to correct
the tool readings.
This is achieved using simple equations such as:
Vcl
GRlog GRmin
GRmax GRmin
or
Vcl
SPlog SPmin
SPmax SPmin

Shale Volume 2
However, as every tool reacts to shale, each tool is
a shale indicator. For example:
b wS w h 1 S w ma 1 Vcl clVcl
