Ratio of oil production rate

bodyq_O
 to water injection rate

:

{\rm PIR} = \frac{q_O}{q_{WI}}

It measures how efficiently waterflood supports the oil production.

The PIR can be related to the current VRR as:

LaTeX Math Block
anchorZ2DU0
alignmentleft
{\rm PIR}= \frac{1}{\rm VRR} \cdot \frac{1-Y_w}{Y_w  + (1-Y_w) \, \left[ \frac{B_o}{B_w}  + \frac{B_g}{B_w} \, ( {\rm GOR} - R_s) \right] }
