What will I learn?
Master porous and dispersed media behavior through this targeted course connecting rock properties, Darcy flow calculations, and multiphase principles to real-world reservoir cases. Develop skills to estimate porosity, permeability, and flow geometry, assess heterogeneity and preferential flow paths, perform sensitivity analyses, document key assumptions, and convert data into practical recommendations for field development and optimization.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Apply Darcy’s law to compute oil and water rates quickly using real reservoir data.
- Estimate porosity and permeability by integrating core and log data for rapid decisions.
- Analyze heterogeneity to predict flow partition, thief zones, and sweep efficiency.
- Use relative permeability to forecast water cut and multiphase flow performance.
- Run sensitivity and risk analyses to test permeability, porosity, viscosity, length, and optimize injection patterns.
