Data from high temperature dynamic sealing tests for various fracture widths, at various temperatures (degrees F), with 5 wt.% bentonite-based mud containing various material fiber contents, at 100 to 400 psi differential pressure.
Data from pressure test and evaluation of the dy...
Rheology data obtained from flow loop tests, performed using different lost circulation materials (LCM) to study their effect on fluid rheology and wellbore hydraulics. The sealing performance of different LCM was tested using different fracture sizes. Five academic papers / repor...
We summarized the FY17 and part of FY18 results of the analysis of the effect of several parameters (e.g., total dissolved solids, specific competing metals, pH, and temperature) on REE recovery from geothermal brine in a manuscript that was submitted to Environmental Science & Te...
This dataset compiles information on geothermal wells drilled into supercritical and near-supercritical conditions, with a focus on drilling and completion materials, fluid chemistry, and laboratory validation studies. The data are drawn from well reports, scientific literature, a...
The work evaluates, develops and demonstrates flexible, scalable mineral extraction technology for geothermal brines based upon solid phase sorbent materials with a specific focus upon rare earth elements (REEs). The selected organic and inorganic sorbent materials demonstrated h...
This report describes a comprehensive review of 49 existing supercritical geothermal wells to inform future geothermal drilling attempts and avoid previous failure points and understand material and testing limitations, while collating information gathered in a publicly accessible...
This report documents the results of investigations dealing with the concentrations and availabilities of strategic, critical and valuable materials (SCVM) in produced waters from geothermal and hydrocarbon reservoirs (50-250 degrees C) in Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, and Ut...
The main goal of this project is to develop an annular isolation system capable to withstand geothermal downhole conditions and mitigate the problems experienced by conventional packers in FORGE wells. This materials testing report is based on thermoplastic and elastomeric materia...
The work evaluates, develops and demonstrates flexible, scalable mineral extraction technology for geothermal brines based upon solid phase sorbent materials with a specific focus upon rare earth elements (REEs). The selected organic and inorganic sorbent materials (silica and MOF...
High-pressure and high-temperature (HPHT) lost circulation material (LCM) rheology test results, LCM particle size distributions (PSD) analysis, and HPHT LCM fluid loss test results. Three academic papers / reports derived from this research are also presented.
This work evaluates, develops and demonstrates flexible, scalable mineral extraction technology for geothermal brines based upon solid phase sorbent materials with a specific focus upon rare earth elements (REEs). The selected organic and inorganic sorbent materials demonstrated h...
Data includes characterization results for novel thermoelectric materials developed specifically for power generation from low temperature geothermal brines. Materials characterization data includes material density, thickness, resistance, Seebeck coefficient. This research was ca...
Solution chemical analysis data for magnetic core shell sorbent materials. Deionized water and brine solutions were spiked with five rare earth elements and the solutions analyzed after approximately 5 minutes exposure to the sorbent particles.
This is a presentation on Designing, Characterizing & Optimizing Proppant and Flow Monitoring Materials for a Utah FORGE Engineered Geothermal System by Oklahoma State University, presented by Dr. Mileva Radonjic. The project is developing advanced proppant materials, flow-monitor...
The submitted dataset was generated by a series of laboratory fracture clogging (permeability reduction) experiments using commercially available materials used for lost circulation management during geothermal well drilling. The experiments were conducted using a permeability plu...
The project provides an updated Energy Return on Investment (EROI) for Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS). Results incorporate Argonne National Laboratory's Life Cycle Assessment and base case assumptions consistent with other projects in the Analysis subprogram.
EROI is a ratio o...
Subsurface Science, Technology and Engineering Research, and Development (SubTER) Crosscut is a collaboration across the Department of Energy offices involved in research activities in energy production/extraction, subsurface storage, and environmental remediation. This submission...
