used while updating “Conversions to standard condition”

9, Select “update MPFM”

10, Repeat steps 5 to 9 by selecting “Conversions to standard condition” instead of
“Edit Density calculations”

11, Select “Permittivity and Conductivity” from “Fluid menu –Fluid calibration”

12, Update Ref water conductivity value and press “O.K”
