The slope of the Water Saturation (Sw), Bulk Volume Water (Bvw), Permeability (K) Plot lines are affected by the
Archie Parameters. Two examples are provided below, which show two distinct slopes and different interpretation
for the data. The Hingle & Pickett Plots do not automatically determine the correct Archie Parameters, but
requires that the user has some understanding of the plot data and geology.
Default 100% Water Saturation (Sw) Plot Line
Modified 100% Water Saturation (Sw) Plot Line
