The simplest way to model the production watercut YW in a given well is the Watercut Fractional Flow @model:

...

This is a very simplistic proxy-model of reservoir saturation under an idealistic waterflood conditions and may mislead in specific cases.


The above model is very idealistic and has very limited applications.

In most practical cases it can only match  the production watercut  at late stage of the field lifecycle when it develops a fair waterflood sweep pattern and does not have thief production.

The most popular short-term production watercut models are given by the brute-force correlation with the flowartes Watercut Correlation @model.
