Bubble map
Brief
Bubble map is a representation of the Wells Daily Measures on a map.
Common Bubble map representations are cumulative oil produced or water injected, rate per well with water cut fraction etc.
The most important use of Bubble map is visualizing the Field, selecting patterns or wells within that Field, and mining the data.
Discussion
There is no analytical or physical based result that can be directly concluded from an inspection of at the typical Bubble map [1].
Analytical calculations must be conducted to determine potential and compared with performance to identify gaps[1].
Analytical calculations most helpful or waterflood engineers would be those focused on patterns. See Mature Water Flood Analysis.
