ABSTRACT
This overview provides a comprehensive examination of waterflooding as a prominent technique in Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). Waterflooding involves the injection of water into reservoirs to displace and recover additional hydrocarbons, surpassing the limits of primary production. The paper delves into the fundamental principles of waterflooding, including its impact on reservoir pressure maintenance, sweep efficiency, and ultimate oil recovery factor. It addresses the economic and technical challenges associated with implementing waterflooding projects, offering insights into reservoir heterogeneity, formation damage, and regulatory compliance. Furthermore, the study shows the significance of accurate reservoir characterization and surveillance techniques in optimizing waterflooding performance. This overview serves as a valuable resource for engineers, geologists, and stakeholders seeking a comprehensive understanding of waterflooding's pivotal role in enhancing oil recovery.
