Porosity

Short Definition

How much empty space is in a rock to hold fluids.

Extended Definition

Porosity is the percentage of a rock’s volume made up of pores. Higher porosity means more storage for hydrocarbons, though flow also depends on permeability.

What It Means to an Investor

Higher porosity often supports larger in‑place volumes and better recovery, improving project economics.
