Water Rate (qw)

Water rate is the amount of water produced over a given interval of time. It is typically noted in units of bbls/d or m3/d measured at surface conditions. When entering rates in the Production Editor tab the following rules apply:

  • A positive rate means production
  • A negative rate means injection
  • A zero rate means shut-in (buildup or falloff)
  • An empty rate means use the previous rate
