Water Flood Project
“Water flood project” means a project in which an operator injects water into a producing horizon in sufficient quantities and under sufficient pressure to stimulate oil production from other wells in the area, and is limited to those areas in which the wells have reached an advanced state of depletion and are regarded as what is commonly referred to as stripper wells.
