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 includes establishing a dataset of allowed well connections for at least one production well and at least one injection well of the hydrocarbon reservoir. The embodiment includes iteratively modifying the dataset of allowed well connections based on a distance category, a static features category, a dynamic features category, or any combination thereof, where the static features category uses static data of the hydrocarbon reservoir and the dynamic features category uses dynamic data of the hydrocarbon reservoir. The embodiment includes, after iteratively modifying the dataset of allowed well connections, running capacitance resistance modeling using the modified dataset of allowed well connections as an input.
