Waterflood Water Sources
e-Learning
About the eLearning Course
In this skill module, we compare water sources, describe how injection water interacts physically and chemically with our reservoir, wells and surface facilities, and discuss how we can change the properties of our injection water on the surface.
Target Audience
Reservoir, production, facilities, and operations engineers who are involved with some aspects of a new or existing waterflood project; geoscientists and professionals who want to get a better feel for the entire process of planning, development, management, and recovery optimization of a waterflood project.

You will learn how to:
- Identify sources of water for a waterflood
- Identify which properties of the water matter
- Identify which properties of the water source matter
- Describe how impurities can be removed from injection water
- Describe what kinds of materials are added to injection water
