Porous and Dispersed Media Course
Gain mastery over porous and dispersed media to improve reservoir management decisions. This course covers Darcy’s law, rock and fluid properties, multiphase flow, heterogeneity analysis, and key engineering calculations to enhance well spacing, waterflooding efficiency, and overall production performance in real-world scenarios.

What will I learn?
Master porous and dispersed media behaviour through this targeted course connecting rock properties, Darcy flow calculations, and multiphase flow to practical reservoir cases. You will learn to calculate porosity, permeability, and flow patterns, assess heterogeneity and high-flow paths, perform sensitivity studies, record assumptions, and convert data into solid recommendations for field development and optimisation.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Apply Darcy’s law to quickly calculate oil and water flow rates using actual reservoir data.
- Estimate porosity and permeability by combining core and log data for fast decisions.
- Analyse heterogeneity to predict flow paths, thief zones, and sweep efficiency.
- Use relative permeability to predict water cut and multiphase flow performance.
- Conduct sensitivity and risk analyses on permeability, porosity, viscosity, length, and optimise injection patterns.
