A Review on Geothermal Energy and HPHT Packers for Geothermal Applications

Energy is an essential component for prosperity, economic growth, and development has become a basic necessity humans, but at the same time, it impact on environment. Therefore, believed that, in coming future, renewable energy will play important part fulfilling demand. In that respect, geothermal be vital as continuous source of not affected by metrological conditions can used power generation or domestic heating. Many countries around globe are actively producing from resources. However, extraction heat subsurface comes with challenges such environment, wellbore instability, corrosion, loss circulation, cementing operation. one most challenging critical tasks zonal isolation well. A packer tool well, high pressure temperature (HPHT) conditions, which common wells. Most components packers fail, causing well integrity issues. This paper gives review forces acting packers, testing standards, problems encountered HPHT designs to overcome those problems.
