The resistivity of reservoir rocks varies in radial direction from Rxo (resistivity of the flushed zone) to Rt (uninvaded zone resistivity). This variation is due to different content in mud filtration, formation water and hydrocarbons from the well wall to the uninvaded zone. The penetration of the mud filter in the collector and the change of the saturation states depend on the properties of the drilling fluid as well as on properties of the collector (porosity, permeability). Electric logs devices measure an ap...
