loginThis monograph is devoted to a comprehensive review of the prac-tical aspects of designing a waterflood system. The list of disciplinesinvolved in waterflooding includes several major branches of en-gineering plus such specialized areas as metallurgy. water chemis-try .and corrosion engineering. This volume will concentrate onthe design of surface and downhole equipment, economic evalua-tions of waterflood projects. and government regulation of suchprojects. The reservoir engineering involved in waterflooding hasbeen handled admirably by Craig in Vol. 3 of the SPE MonographSeries. Reservoir Engineering Aspects of Waterjlooding, and willnot be covered here. Monograph Vol. 3 is highly recommendedfor study when any waterflood project is undertaken
