The primary objective of this research is to understand how different rock types, mineral and fluid compositions, and fracture surface textures determine the longevity of fracture apertures, so that selection of reservoir rock can be economically optimized to reduce future refract...
This file contains additional data for this test (hydroshear test 3.2). In this test a sample of granite with a pre-cut (man made fracture) is confined, heated and differential stress is applied. The max temperature in this this system development test is 95C. More test details ca...
This is a presentation on the Wellbore Fracture Imaging Using Inflow Detection Measurements project by Stanford University, presented by Dr. Roland N. Horne. The project's objective was to make measurements in the Utah FORGE wells, both before and after fracturing experiments, to...
The problem of loss circulation in geothermal wells is inherently challenging due to high temperatures, brittle rocks, and presence of abundant fractures. Because of the inherent challenges in geothermal environments, there are limitations in selecting proper lost circulation mate...
Numerical modeling on fused silica cylindrical materials for predicting overpressures required to fracture an homogeneous pure (surrogate) material with known mechanical properties similar to igneous rock materials and later compare these values to experimental overpressures obtai...
This dataset contains experimental data from fluid injection experiments conducted to investigate the influence of temperature on fracture seismicity. The experiments were performed on granite samples from Utah FORGE. The samples were prepared with a 30-degree inclined fracture an...
The Newberry Volcano EGS Demonstration in central Oregon, a 3 year project started in 2010, tests recent technological advances designed to reduce the cost of power generated by EGS in a hot, dry well (NWG 55-29) drilled in 2008. First, the stimulation pumps used were designed to ...
This is a presentation on the Closing the Loop Between In-situ Stress Complexity and EGS Fracture Complexity project by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, presented by Dr. Fan (Frank) Fei. The project's objective was to employ a combination of high-fidelity simulations and tr...
We developed a model for fracture production produced during detonation of an explosive mixture in a 10m packed off section of a shallow borehole. The model is based upon an actual field and lab experiments on low-damage borehole fracturing performed at Sandia National Labs by Mar...
This report contains the results of research conducted to make measurements in the FORGE wells to map flowing fractures and estimate their flow magnitudes in real time. Implementation of the project had two substantial goals: (1) to locate flowing fractures at FORGE and estimate t...
We investigate the flow-channeling phenomenon caused by thermal drawdown in fractured geothermal reservoirs. A discrete fracture network-based, fully coupled thermal "hydrological" mechanical simulator is used to study the interactions between fluid flow, temperature change, and t...
The files in this submission describes the results of a series of stress measurement and hydraulic fracturing experiments conducted at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, SD. This report describes the accomplishments of the kISMET (permeability (k) and Induce...
This is a presentation on Integrating Tracer Huff-Puff Tests and Geomechanical Analysis to Measure Evolution of the Fracture Network in EGS Reservoirs by California State University Long Beach, presented by Prof. Matthew Becker. This video slide presentation describes the use of h...
This is a presentation on High-Temperature Testing of Proppants for EGS and Simulation of Electromagnetic Fracture Mapping Using Electrically-Conductive Proppants by Stevens Institute of Technology, presented by Dr. Cheng Chen. The project is evaluating the performance of electric...
This dataset includes files used to fit planar fractures through the preliminary earthquake catalogs of the three stages of the April 2022 well 16A(78)-32 stimulation which is linked bellow. These planar features have been used to update the FORGE reference Discrete Fracture Netwo...
The EGS Collab project is developing ~10-20 m-scale field sites where fracture stimulation and flow models can be validated against controlled, small-scale, in-situ experiments. The first multi-well experimental site was established at the 4850 level in the Homestake Mine in Lead,...
This is a presentation and materials on the Design and Implementation of Innovative Stimulation Treatments to Maximize Energy Recovery Efficiency at the Utah FORGE Site project by The University of Texas at Austin, presented by Professor Mukul M. Sharma. The project's objectives w...
This dataset contains the final technical report and closeout presentation for Utah FORGE Project 4-2541, which focused on the optimization and validation of a multistage plug and perf stimulation treatment design for enhanced geothermal systems. The report documents drilling, com...
This submission contains the presentation slides and recordings from the first 98 EGS Collab Modeling and Simulation Working Group teleconferences. These teleconferences served three objectives for the project: 1) share simulation results, 2) communicate field activities and resul...
This dataset includes the data and a report on the large upscaled discrete fracture network modeling done for the Utah FORGE project in 2023. The FORGE modeling team is making five discrete fracture network (DFN) realizations of a large reservoir model available to researchers. Th...
This dataset includes data from injection/fall-off experiments conducted in controlled laboratory settings. The aim is to investigate the physics governing fracture closure and the associated stress measurements during hydraulic fracturing. These time series data include flow rat...
This dataset contains results from a pump and probe experiment conducted on a mated fracture Westerly Granite sample with a diameter of 1 inch and a height of 2 7/8 inches. The experiment was performed within an aluminum triaxial pressure vessel (TEMCO) to investigate the non-line...
Enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) can provide a sustainable and renewable solution to the new energy transition. Its potential relies on the ability to create a reservoir and to accurately evaluate its evolving hydraulic properties to predict fluid flow and estimate ultimate therm...
This dataset contains experimental measurements of fluid flow and pressure behavior during fracture conductivity tests in granite core samples. The tests were designed to evaluate various ionic and nonionic fluids, including BMiMBr, HPyBF4, HPyBr, an oil-based fluid (OBF-1), and a...
