This dataset contains the final technical report for the project Joint Electromagnetic/Seismic/InSAR Imaging of Spatial-Temporal Fracture Growth and Estimation of Physical Fracture Properties During EGS Resource Development, carried out from 2021 to 2025 by Lawrence Berkeley Natio...
The FORGE team is making these fracture models available to researchers wanting a set of natural fractures in the FORGE reservoir for use in their own modeling work. They have been used to predict stimulation distances during hydraulic stimulation at the open toe section of well 1...
This package includes data and models that support hydraulic fracture stimulation and fluid circulation experiments in the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF). A paper by Schwering et al. (2020) describes the deterministic basis for developing a "common" discrete fracture...
This paper describes the applications of the fractured continuum model to the different enhanced geothermal systems reservoir conditions. The capability of the fractured continuum model to generate fracture characteristics expected in enhanced geothermal systems reservoir environm...
The Utah FORGE 2025 v1 DFN (fracture model) includes 131 discrete planar fractures which were identified using combined site data sets to capture flow pathways between wells 16A(78)-32 and 16B(78)-32 following stimulation activities in 2022 and 2024. It also includes stochastic fr...
This is a presentation on Designing, Characterizing & Optimizing Proppant & Flow Monitoring Materials for a Utah FORGE Engineered Geothermal System by Oklahoma State University, presented by Dr. Mileva Radonjic. This video slide presentation discusses enhanced proppant coatings, z...
This a report for the project "Mapping Fracture Network Creation with Microseismicity During EGS Demonstrations". Effective enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) require optimal fracture networks for efficient heat transfer between hot rock and fluid. Microseismic mapping is a key too...
The evolution of flow pattern along a single fracture and its effects on heat production is a fundamental problem in the assessments of engineered geothermal systems (EGS). The channelized flow pattern associated with ubiquitous heterogeneity in fracture aperture distribution caus...
On April 21, 2022, sewer camera surveys were conducted in boreholes TN and TL as part of Experiment 2 of the EGS Collab project. These surveys were performed during fluid injection into three zones in borehole TC to identify the depths of active fracture intersections. The goal wa...
This dataset contains thermohydraulic measurements of fluid flow through single and dual fracture systems under controlled laboratory conditions. Experiments were conducted at Oklahoma State University using various ionic and nonionic fluids, including deep eutectic solvents (DES)...
