Another source, Dictionary of Petroleum Exploration, Drilling & Production By Norman J. Hyne

flush-production stage: the stage in the history of a field that occurs between the initial development period in which the wells are drilled and the settled production stage in which the oil is produced at a relatively level, but slightly declining rate. During the flush production stage, the oil is produced in relatively large, but rapidly declining amounts from the natural reservoir energy.
