Abstract
Described herein are various embodiments of computer-implemented methods, computing systems, and program products for analyzing a flood operation on a hydrocarbon reservoir. For example, an embodiment of a computer implemented method of determining a value of injected fluid includes, for a first injection well of the hydrocarbon reservoir: receiving injection rate data for the first injection well and production rate data for at least one production well communicating with the injection well, running capacitance resistance modeling using the received data to generate an interwell connectivity for each injection well and production well pair, determining a value of injected fluid for each injection well and production well pair using the generated interwell connectivity for the well pair and an oil-cut value for the production well of the pair, and aggregating the generated values of injected fluid per pair to determine a value of injected fluid for the first injection well.
