Systems and methods are provided for forecasting performance of polymer flooding of an oil reservoir system. For example, property data of the oil reservoir system and polymer flooding scenario data are received. Numerical simulations are performed to generate values of an effective mobility ratio and response time for the polymer and water flooding. A correlation for the polymer flooding effective mobility ratio is determined and used in a predictive model to generate polymer and water flooding performance data, representative of oil recovery by the polymer and water flooding of the oil reservoir system.
