Abstract
A system includes a set of one or more electromagnetic (EM) field sensors deployed in a borehole formed in a downhole formation, wherein the set of EM field sensors provides sensitivity to EM fields. The system also includes an EM field source that emits an EM field into the downhole formation. The system also includes a data processing system that receives measurements collected by the set of EM field sensors in response to the emitted EM field. The data processing system models the subsurface EM field based on the received measurements and identifies a plurality of flood fronts corresponding to fluid approaching the borehole from the injection wells, and adjusts injection rates to prevent injection fluid breakthrough.
