This paper discusses the use of AutoCAD, a popular PC CAD (Computer Aided Design/Drafting) application package, for calculation and analysis of water flood injection profile data. By heavily utilizing the customizing capability of the AutoCAD program, calculational accuracy and repeatability are enhanced. Additionally, the well log analyst is able to more readily verify and validate assumptions during the interactive data analysis phase. The theory and application of profile analysis will be discussed: included are example calculations. Additionally, AutoCAD customizing techniques and programming examples will be discussed. Finally, the automated use of AutoCAD to facilitate multiple well presentations (historical and intra field) will be presented.
