Geothermal Reservoir Interpretation from Change in Gravity

Description: Precision gravity methods provide new information regarding geothermal reservoir mechanisms and depletion. This paper discusses the principles of present interpretations and early conclusions from two producing geothermal fields, Wairakei, in New Zealand, and The Geysers, California. 4 refs., 4 figs.

Optimal Timing of Geothermal Energy Extraction

Description: This paper is concerned with the optimal time to commence extraction of energy from a hot-water geothermal reservoir. The economic models that we have presented in the past have the common characteristics that the extraction program starts immediately (see References 1 and 2). Based on this assumption, we determined optimal extraction strategies and planning horizons such that the present values of total profits were maximized. In this study we relax the requirement that extraction be undertake… more

Progress Report on Multiphase Geothermal Modeling

Description: Work over the past year has concentrated on three areas: 1) to implement a concept of vertical equilibrium in geothermal modeling, 2) to improve the matrix equation solution technique for both two- and three-dimensional models, which improvements this report describes in detail, and 3) to apply a vertical equilibrium, areal model to the Wairakei, New Zealand geothermal field. The steady-state modeling indicates that large regions in the reservoir probably had a small steam cap prior to exploita… more

Summary of Results of HGP-A Well Testing

Description: The experimental well, HGP-A, drilled under the auspices of the Hawaii Geothermal Project, is located on the island of Hawaii near the eastern rift of Kilauea volcano. Drilling was completed to a depth of 6450 feet in April 1976. The well is cased to 2230 feet below the surface, which is 600 feet above sea level, with a slotted liner running from the end of the casing to bottomhole. Cuttings and core samples obtained during drilling indicate that the region is composed of volcanic basalt with a… more

Well Interference Study of the Multi-Layered Salton Sea Geothermal Reservoir

Description: A well interference testing program of the Salton Sea Geothermal reservoir is being conducted as part of a resource evaluation study by the Earth Sciences Geothermal Industrial Support Program of the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory. Studies to date indicate the reservoir rock to be composed of layered sequences of shales and sands. Wells involved in the testing program are being used in support of, or are in the vicinity of, the MAGMA-SDG&E Geothermal Loop Experimental Facility (GLEF), located in… more

Measurement of Steam-Water Flows for the Total Flow Turbine

Description: Hot water geothermal fields discharge steam-water mixtures, which have proved difficult to measure compared with the dry steam from fields like The Geysers and Lardarello. Hot water geothermal fields discharge steam-water mixtures, which have proved difficult to measure compared with the dry steam from fields like The Geysers and Lardarello. With the development of the lip pressure method, however (James 1962), an accurate method was derived which could measure the flow when a geothermal well d… more

Hydraulic Fracture Initiation Sites in Open Boreholes Identified by Geophysical Logs

Description: Smith et al (1975) have proposed the creation of man-made geothermal energy reservoirs by drilling into relatively impermeable rock to a depth where the temperature is high enough to be useful; creating a reservoir by hydraulic fracturing; and then completing the circulation loop by drilling a second hole to intersect the hydraulically fractured region. The initiation of hydraulically created fluid reservoirs in highly impermeable hot dry rock must by definition take place in a wellbore. The na… more

Simulation of Saturated-Unsaturated Deformable Porous Media

Description: A multiphase consolidation theory is presented which considers a three-dimensional deformation field coupled with a three-dimensional hydrologic flow field. The governing system of equations describes the components of displacement, the fluid pressures and the saturations. The system of equations governing saturated-unsaturated consolidation is obtained as a subset of the above equations. A mixed stress-displacement formulation of the governing equations is introduced, and it facilitates handli… more

Prediction of Final Temperature

Description: The engineering necessity of achieving maximum cooling of the borehole during drilling and logging operations on geothermal wells prohibits the determination of equilibrium temperature in the sub-surface before virtual rebound from the drilling disturbance some months after operations cease. Clearly, substantial economic benefits would accrue, in many cases, if a reasonable prediction of equilibrium temperature can be made while the rig is still over the borehole. The purpose of this brief repo… more

Momotombo Geothermal Reservoir

Description: Flow tests and pressure measurements were made on a group of five wells in the Momotombo geothermal reservoir, Nicaragua. The purpose of these tests was to evaluate the hot water reservoir, to determine well interference effects, to determine reservoir boundary conditions and to obtain mass flow rates and enthalpy. Static bottom hoe pressures were measured on three wells and bottom hole flowing pressures and shut-in buildup pressures were measured on one of the wells. A Hewlett-Packard quartz c… more

The "Heat-Pipe" Effect in Vapor-Dominated Geothermal Systems

Description: White, Muffler, and Truesdell (1971) and Truesdell and White (1973) developed a conceptual model of transport in vapor-dominated geothermal zones. The main theme of the model is that coexisting liquid and vapor phases form a counterflowing convection system similar to that observed in a heat pipe (Dunn and Reay, 1976). It is hypothesized that water evaporates from a deep water table, passes upward through the formation, and condenses at an impermeable cap rock, effectively transferring the late… more
