Typical values for connate water saturation

Typical values for connate water saturation

Typical values for connate water saturation

(OP)
I know that typical values for connate water saturation are anywhere from 15-30%.  However, I've seen some people using 3-6% initial Sw in their reserves calculations.  This seems very low to me.  The reserves predictions are in very clean, 1-2 Darcy rock.  Is this value too low?  They say that they are getting the Sw from the logs, but it just doesn't seem that you can get a connate water saturation that low.

Let me know what you think.
