Abstract
Water flooding is the most successful and widely used<br>process for effective pressure maintenance and enhancing<br>the oil recovery because water is widely available and<br>inexpensive relative to other fluids, easy to inject, and<br>highly efficient in displacing oil. For water floods, through<br>continuous surveillance plan, reservoir monitoring and<br>water front tracking results in improving sweep efficiency<br>and enhancing the overall oil recovery.
