Millidarcy to square meters
Type a value in mD to get it in m² instantly.
9.869×10⁻¹⁴m²
That's about the same as reservoir sandstone. For water that is a hydraulic conductivity of about 0.00966 cm/s.
What it means
How well does it flow?
Hydraulic conductivity assumes water at 20 °C. For oil or gas the same rock gives a different figure.
The math
How to convert mD to m²
To convert millidarcy to square meters, multiply by 9.869×10⁻¹⁶.
Example: 100 mD × 9.869×10⁻¹⁶ = 9.869×10⁻¹⁴ m².
In the other direction, 1 m² = 1.013×10¹⁵ mD.
