Abstract
A method may include receiving a plurality of signals from a sensor deployed in a subterranean formation and performing a step-rate analysis for the subterranean formation using the plurality of signals. An ideal volumetric flow rate and pressure of water injected into the subterranean formation by a power water injector may be determined from the step-rate analysis. A cumulative volume and pressure of water injected into the subterranean formation may be determined continuously to obtain a plurality of cumulative injected water and pressure data points. A Hall plot analysis may be performed from the plurality of cumulative injected water and pressure data points. A mitigation action may be performed when a deviation from steady state within the Hall plot analysis is beyond a constant factor, wherein the mitigation action reduces the deviation from steady state.
