About Millidarcy

The millidarcy (mD) equals 10⁻³ D ≈ 9.869 × 10⁻¹⁶ m², the everyday unit in petroleum reservoir engineering worldwide. Conventional sandstone reservoirs: 1-1 000 mD; carbonate reservoirs: 0.1-100 mD; economic gas recovery typically requires k ≥ 0.1 mD. Permeameter and well-test reports give results in mD. 1 mD = 10⁻³ D = 10³ µD.

About Foot squared

The square foot (ft²) equals (0.3048 m)² = 9.290 304 × 10⁻² m² ≈ 9.41 × 10¹³ D. An imperial area unit included for unit-conversion completeness; it occasionally appears in US geotechnical reports where flow cross-sections are expressed in square feet. 1 ft² = 144 in² = 9.290 304 × 10⁻² m².
