Testing LCM on a Large Scale for Geothermal Drilling Applications Using a Novel Experimental Setup

Apr 22, 2022
15.98 MB
Publicly accessible
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...

EGS Collab Experiment 1: In-situ observation of pre-, co and post-seismic shear slip preceding hydraulic fracturing

May 22, 2018
136.27 MB
Publicly accessible
Understanding the initiation and arrest of earthquakes is one of the long-standing challenges of seismology. Here we report on direct observations of borehole displacement by a meter-sized shear rupture induced by pressurization of metamorphic rock at 1.5 km depth. We observed the...
