Ratio of current Water injection rate q^{\downarrow}_{WI} to current Liquid production rate  q^{\uparrow}_L:

(1) {\rm PRR} = \frac{q^{\downarrow}_{WI}}{q^{\uparrow}_L}

It is normally calculated for the whole field or its sector and represents one of the key Production Analysis metrics.


Unlike VRR, the PRR does not have a direct correlation with reservoir pressure maintenance and is mostly used as engineering tool for a trackable target in field operations

Most  Reservoir Engineers make their analysis in VRR categories and then translate them into PRR so that Production Technologists can follow up.
