Abstract

A method for calibrating a water injection network model includes obtaining measurements at a wellhead for a plurality of injection wells included in an injection pipeline network and determining an injection rate reconciliation for the plurality of injection wells. This method further includes dividing the injection pipeline network into a plurality of main-loops and subdividing the plurality of main-loops into a plurality of sub-loops. A friction factor multiplier is determined to match a simulated pressure drop in each of the plurality of sub-loops to a measured pressure drop at the wellhead and the water injection network model is calibrated by using the friction factor multiplier.
