Multiphase flow

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-004390

The simultaneous flow of two or more fluid phases, such as oil, gas, and water, within the reservoir or wellbore. This complex flow regime is common in hydrocarbon production and significantly affects pressure behavior and production rates. Analyzing multiphase flow requires specialized models and correlations.
