Numerical studies of the heat and mass transport in the Cerro Prieto Geothermal Field, Mexico [PDF]

Water Resources Research, 1983
Numerical simulation techniques are employed in studies of the natural flow of heat and mass through the Cerro Prieto reservoir, Mexico and of the effects of exploitation on the field's behavior. The reservoir model is a two‐dimensional vertical east to west‐southwest cross section, which is based on a recent hydrogeologic model of this geothermal ...

Characterizing Shallow Aseismic Deformation Along the Dead Sea Pull‐Apart Basin Using Geodetic Observations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract We use creepmeter (CM), Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) and airborne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) observations to characterize transient aseismic deformation along the central Dead Sea pull‐apart basin, which is located at the southern part of the sinistral Dead Sea Fault (DSF).

Study of the use of low enthalpy geothermal energy for the thermal conditioning of a low-income house in Mexico

Next Energy
With the global population increasing and electricity consumption rising, the environmental impact of energy use, particularly in the building sector during summer, has become a significant concern.

Hydrothermal Signatures Discovered in Outcropping Rocks of the Los Humeros Geothermal Field (Mexico): A Geochemometric Exploration Case Study

Geofluids, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Hydrothermal geochemical signatures in outcropping rock samples of the super‐hot Los Humeros geothermal field were discovered by using an integrated geochemometric study of the mobility of components (major oxides) and trace elements. Chemical component and element mobilities were determined by using the Gresens–Grant equation for mass balances.

Intersecting faults and sandstone stratigraphy at the cerro prieto geothermal field [PDF]

Geothermics, 1981
Abstract The NW - SE trending Cerro Prieto fault zone is part of a major regional lineament that extends into Sonora, Mexico, and has characteristics of both a wrench fault and an oceanic transform fault. The zone includes a number of separate identified faults and apparently penetrates deep into the basement and crustal rocks in the area.

Cerro Prieto geothermal field: exploration during exploitation [PDF]

, 1982
Geological investigations at Momotombo included photogeology, field mapping, binocular microscope examination of cuttings, and drillhole correlations. Among the geophysical techniques used to investigate the field sub-structure were: Schlumberger and electromagnetic soundings, dipole mapping and audio-magnetotelluric surveys, gravity and magnetic ...

Extensive geochemical studies in the geothermal field of Cerro Prieto, Mexico [PDF]

, 1977
Data collected during 12 years of operation of the chemical laboratory at Cerro Prieto are presented. These data include analyses of dissolved ions and gases in exploration and production wells and in thermal springs, as observed in repeatedly collected samples and measurements of wellhead and separator pressures, flow of steam and water and size of ...

Mexican-American cooperative program at the Cerro Prieto geothermal field: recent results of the well-drilling program at Cerro Prieto [PDF]

, 1981
The results of the 1980 and 1981 well drilling activities at the Cerro Prieto geothermal field are summarized. Details are given on the new series of deeper wells completed in the western (older) part of the field (Cerro Prieto I), and on the development and step-out wells drilled in the eastern part of the field (Cerro Prieto II and III).

EARTHQUAKE MONITORING AT THE CERRO PRIETO GEOTHERMAL FIELD

, 1980
A three-week study in spring 1978 revealed more moderate earthquake activity (one or two events/day, M/sub L/ greater than or equal to 1) in the Cerro Prieto production zone. Plotting these events on a Wadati diagram we estimated an 0.4 Poisson's ratio for the upper 1 to 2 km of the field.
