Summary When used in low permeability or ultra-low permeability reservoirs, water injection is one of the most economical methods for ensuring maximum production rates. Water Injection For Low Permeability Reservoirs provides production and reservoir engineers with a no nonsense guide to plan, design, implement and evaluate a water injection system that will improve recovery factors. In this book, the author clearly explains the characteristics of ultra-low permeability reservoirs and linear flow theories. These topics are then applied to design and implementation.
