WATER FLOOD PROSPECT STUDY FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEWLY


DISCOVERED OIL FIELD “XYZ”

Assume a small oil field, named XYZ, which was recently been discovered in the
southern part of the country. Oil will be produced for the first five years with two
producers. In order to enhance the recovery , the company is considering a five
years water injection project for the field.
As a reservoir engineer, you have been assigned to conduct a detailed reservoir
engineering study for the prospect of water injection project.
Available geological, petrophysical , PVT and reservoir engineering data are below
