Abstract: A method of dynamically allocating a total amount of produced water (PW) from a reservoir during enhanced oil recovery (EOR) via a low salinity or softened water EOR flood by receiving measurement data; receiving reservoir configuration information comprising: an EOR injection rate associated with one or more EOR injection zones, a disposal zone injection rate associated with one or more disposal injection zones, and a non-reinjection disposal rate associated with one or more non-reinjection disposal routes; determining a blending rate comprising at least a portion of the PW production rate and at least a portion of the low salinity or softened water injection rate to provide a blended injection fluid; blending at least a portion of the PW with at least a portion of the low salinity or softened water at the blending rate; and dynamically allocating the PW production rate among injection and/or non-reinjection routes.
