Specific type of waterfflood recovery when offtakes are fully compensated by intakes  intakes

Instantaneous Voidage Replacement Balance (IVRB) = Intakes - Offtakes =  \Delta q = q^{\downarrow}_t - q^{\uparrow}_t = 0 

which is equivalent to: 

Instantaneous Voidage Replacement Ratio (IVRR) = \displaystyle {\rm IVRR} = \frac{\rm Intakes}{\rm Offtakes} = \frac{q^{\downarrow}_t}{q^{\uparrow}_t} = 1
