Reservoir characterization for the completion of the geothermal district heating system in Grado (NE Italy)

, 2013
As part of the Grado geothermal Project - Phase 2, an integrated gravity and seismic prospecting was recently conducted in downtown Grado Island (North Eastern Italy) and in the surrounding lagoon. The aim of this study was to characterize the carbonatic

Coupled Assessment of Injection Pressure–Driven Risk, Trapping Evolution, and Cost Uncertainty in Geological CO2 Storage

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Scaling geological CO2 storage requires simultaneously controlling plume migration, pressure buildup, geomechanical integrity, and monitoring cost under deep subsurface uncertainty. Yet early‐stage assessments often treat these elements in isolation, obscuring the decision‐critical couplings between pressure‐defined regulatory exposure and ...

Geothermal reservoir characterization: a thermofacies concept

Terra Nova, 2012
Terra Nova, 24, 142–147, 2012AbstractThe thermofacies concept is based on new measurements of about 11 000 plug samples drilled from sedimentary rocks and investigated at TU Darmstadt from 2007 to 2011. Some hundred representative thin sections were analysed for facies interpretation.

Pulse testing in Geothermal Energy: Demonstration of a new monitoring tool. [PDF]

, 2022
Harmonic pulse testing has been employed to identify the thermal front in a geothermal system and in a heat storage system. For the geothermal system we could identify the hydraulic reservoir properties around the well.

A Reassessment of Petrochemistry of ~1.2 Ga Tonalitic Rocks of the Northern Tugela Terrane, Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa: Further Constraints on the Evolution of This Belt

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Our petrochemical studies on ~1.2 Ga granitoids of the Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa, do not suggest any property similar to Phanerozoic‐style subduction‐related granitoids. Plot of Kotongweni Tonalite in Y versus Sr diagram (after Moyen 2011), note that most samples have Sr/Y < 50.

Mercury cycling during the last glacial period in Arctic Lake El'gygytgyn, NE Russia

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tectonic processes play a key role in the global mercury (Hg) cycle on geological timescales, by mobilising Hg from deep Earth reservoirs to the surface. These natural fluxes also introduce a dynamic component to the terrestrial Hg cycle that can interact with other environmental signals and influence Hg delivery to sedimentary records.

The Combined Effects of Variable Viscosity and Thermal Conductivity of An Unsteady Casson Fluid Flow Along a Vertical Porous Channel With Convective Cooling Walls, Using the Bivariate Spectral Local Linearization Method

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the combined impact of different thermal conductivity and viscosity on unsteady non‐Newtonian Casson fluid flow of incompressible, electrical conductivity in a porous vertical channel with convective cooling walls, uniform magnetic field, and constant pressure gradient.

Geothermal structural geology in New Zealand: Innovative characterisation and micro-analytical techniques

, 2017
Many of New Zealand's geothermal reservoirs are hosted in rocks with low intrinsic permeability. As such, successful development of these resources relies on understanding the role subsurface structures, such as fractures and faults, play in reservoir ...
