Porous and Dispersed Media Course
Gain mastery over porous and dispersed media to enhance reservoir management. This course covers Darcy’s law, rock and fluid properties, multiphase flow dynamics, heterogeneity effects, and key engineering calculations. Apply these to optimise well spacing, waterflooding operations, and overall production efficiency in realistic field scenarios.

What will I learn?
Master porous and dispersed media behaviour through this targeted course, connecting rock properties, Darcy flow calculations, and multiphase principles to practical reservoir cases. You will learn to calculate porosity, permeability, and flow patterns, assess heterogeneity and high-flow paths, perform sensitivity studies, record key assumptions, and convert data into solid recommendations for field development and performance improvements.

Develop skills
- Apply Darcy’s law to calculate oil and water flow rates using real reservoir data.
- Estimate porosity and permeability by combining core and log data for rapid decisions.
- Analyse heterogeneity to forecast flow distribution, thief zones, and sweep efficiency.
- Use relative permeability to predict water cut and multiphase flow outcomes.
- Conduct sensitivity and risk analyses on permeability, porosity, viscosity, length, and optimise injection strategies.

I like how the lessons are straight to the point and how I can change chapters and skip content I don't need.

Mariana FerresPhotography Student
I like the content and the way videos are presented and transcribed, which speeds up the process!

Luciana AlvarengaNail Design Student
The platform is fast, simple to use. The diversity of content and complementary videos help a lot with learning.
