Figure 17. A comparison of FMI colors and porosity and permeability measurement from core plugs. White zones are calcite and/or silica cemented with low porosity and permeability. Yellow zones typically show high porosity and permeability. Orange zones are clay rich with high porosity but low permeability. Gray color represents claystone or shale. (From Al-Shaieb et al., 1998.)
