Mobility
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-002403
The ratio of a fluid's effective permeability to its viscosity, representing the ease with which that fluid can flow through a porous medium. Higher mobility indicates less resistance to flow. It is a key parameter in multiphase flow calculations and well performance analysis, expressed in units of darcy/centipoise.
