Answer Porosity is a measure how hole many pores, or holes a rock has in it. Permeability is a measure of how a rock resists fluids flowing through it. If a rock is very porous and is very permeable, water will pass right through it. Limest... Read More »

It would be an extreme situation for porosity to change very much as a result of drilling. Drilling does influence the reservoir directly around the bore hole. If you look at an FMI (formation micro-imager) log, you can often observe drilli... Read More »

I am assuming you are drilling a well of some type. The difference between porosity and permeability is simple. Porosity is the amount of holes in a rock. So if a rock had 20% porosity, 20% of the entire rock is void space ( none-rock ). Pe... Read More »

I'm going to assume that you are asking about these terms in their relationship to science, so here is what I know: Porosity is the amount of empty space in a rock or other earth material (like sand) - in other words, it's how much water a ... Read More »
