Paper: Dynamometer Fundamentals As Applied To Water Flood Operations

After the initial studies and decisions have been made and the flood is started, it is then a matter of continuous checking and adjusting of volumes of input water in order to attain optimum results at the producing wells. In order to show how the dynamometer fits into the picture, we will use illustrations of actual cases. However, in the discussion of fundamentals, we shall briefly explain what the dynamometer is and what it does.
