## Abstract The mixed hybrid finite element (MHFE) and the multipoint flux approximation (MPFA) methods are well suited for anisotropic heterogeneous domains since both are locally conservative and can handle general irregular grids. In this work, behaviours and performances of MHFE and MPFA method
