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