•Thin section, image log and rock physics data were applied to pinpoint the vugs.•The VDL approach were utilized to reveal vuggy-bearing intervals.•In presence of vug, it is necessary to use the variable porosity exponent (m) instead of a constant “m” value.•Petrophysical evaluation were enhanced us...
