Optimization of Reinjection in Geothermal Reservoirs
Re-injection of produced geothermal water for pressure support is a common practice in geothermal field management. The location selection of the reinjection well and the rate of injection is a challenging subject for geothermal reservoir engineers. The goal of optimization for this type of problem is usually to find one or more combinations of geothermal re-injection well locations that will m...
متن کاملA New Method of Forecasting the Thermal Breakthrough Time During Reinjection in Geothermal Reservoirs
Success of a reinjection process depends on the method used for estimating the thermal -ugh time. Estimating the thermal breakthrough time may be based solely on tracer data. Alternatively. it may be estimated solely by using thermal interference tests. While the tracer method usually yields ambiguous estimates, thermal interference tests are infeasible because durations of these tests are simi...
متن کاملGeothermal Vertical Effects in Thermal Response Tests
We present analytical solutions for the temperature around the borehole heat exchanger which account for: (I) finite length line-source; (II) natural vertical gradient of the ground temperature; (III) arbitrary changes of the ground surface temperature. We find that the time-dependent part of the solution decays as a power of the time approaching the steady state limit. The long-time limit and ...
متن کاملCharacterization of Fractures in Geothermal Reservoirs Using Resistivity
The optimal design of production in fractured geothermal reservoirs requires knowledge of the resource’s connectivity, therefore making fracture characterization highly important. This study aims to develop methodologies to use resistivity measurements to infer fracture properties in geothermal fields. The resistivity distribution in the field can be estimated by measuring potential differences...
متن کاملPerformance Model for Vertical Wells with Multi-stage Horizontal Hydraulic Fractures in Water Flooded Multilayer Reservoirs
For the characteristics of horizontal fractures in shallow low-permeability oil layers after hydraulic fracturing in multilayer reservoirs, horizontal fractures are taken equivalent to an elliptical cylinder with the reservoir thickness using the equivalent permeability model; then, upon the elliptic seepage theory, the seepage field which has led by a vertical well with horizontal fractures is...
