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 for analyzing a flood operation for a hydrocarbon reservoir having a plurality of zones is provided. The embodiment includes receiving injection profile data (ILT) and injection rates. The embodiment also uses the received injection profile data and injection rates to split each injection well into multiple zonal level injectors. The embodiment also includes running capacitance resistance modeling treating each zonal level injector as a single injector, where running capacitance resistance modeling includes generating interwell connectivities at the zonal level.
