“…To define different CO 2 EGR scenarios, the concept of voidage replacement was introduced
53,54 . The voidage replacement ratio (VRR) is defined as

is the volume of the fluid injected,
is the volume of the hydrocarbon produced,
is the injection rate and
is the production rate. If the VRR is equal to or greater than 1, the pressure in the reservoir is maintained or increased.…”
