Abstract

The disclosure relates to system and method for determining at least one property of a porous medium and includes performing a first measurement on a sample of the porous medium obtaining an optical path through pores of the porous medium using a first sensor applied utilizing a first optical technology; performing a second measurement on the sample of the porous medium obtaining a total optical path through the porous medium using a second sensor utilizing a second optical technology different from the first optical technology; and calculating an optical porosity of the porous medium based on the optical path through the pores and the total optical path through the porous medium.
