This is a presentation on the Optimization and Validation of a Plug-and-Perf Stimulation Treatment Design at Utah FORGE project by Fervo Energy, presented by Sireesh Dadi. The project's objective was to develop a multistage hydraulic stimulation approach designed specifically to t...
The proposed Newberry Volcano FORGE site is in central Oregon on the northwest flank of the largest volcano in the Cascades volcanic arc. Beneath Newberry Volcano is one of the largest geothermal heat reservoirs in the western United States, extensively studied for the last 40 yea...
As part of the shear induced permeability test, the rock cores were also scanned with X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) before and after sustainability tests using a modified GE Lightspeed 16 medical CT scanner. The CT provides another perspective on the fracture and aperture, as wel...
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...
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...
Links to papers and reports describing the structure and character of the Illinois Basin geology.
Included are descriptions of the two reservoirs that are being modeled for the DDU feasibility project at University of Illinois, the St. Peter and Mt. Simon Sandstones.
This dataset contains input data, code, ReadMe files, output data, and figures that summarize the results of a stochastic analysis of geothermal reservoir production from two potential geothermal reservoirs that were evaluated for the Cornell University Deep Direct-Use project. Th...
Slip and dilation tendency on the Great Basin fault surfaces (from the USGS Quaternary Fault Database) were calculated using 3DStress (software produced by Southwest Research Institute).
Slip and dilation tendency are both unitless ratios of the resolved stresses applied to the f...
We conducted a comprehensive analysis of the structural controls of geothermal systems within the Great Basin and adjacent regions. Our main objectives were to:
1) Produce a catalogue of favorable structural environments and models for geothermal systems.
2) Improve site-specifi...
These studies undertook detailed analyses of the Mt. Simon Sandstone in the Illinois Basin for geological storage and sequestration, and brine extraction.
This is an analysis of the pressure falloff in stage 1 fracture stimulation of FORGE well 16A(78)-32. The objective of this research is to understand the information content of the well stimulation data of FORGE Well 16A(78)-32. The Stage 1 step-rate test, a variant of the classic...
Included here are a presentation recording, slides, and report on the Multi-Stage Fracturing System and Well Tractor to Enable Zonal Isolation During Stimulation and EGS Operations in Horizontal Wellbores project by Colorado School of Mines, presented by Dr. William W. Fleckenstei...
In these data sets, the experiment time, actual date and time, room temperature, sample temperature, upstream and downstream pressures (measured independently), corrected differential pressure (measured independently and corrected for offset and room temperature) indication of ape...
We are conducting an inventory of structural settings of geothermal systems (>400 total) in the extensional to transtensional Great Basin region of the western USA. A system of NW-striking dextral faults known as the Walker Lane accommodates ~20% of the North American-Pacific plat...
The computed tomography (CT) facilities at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) Morgantown, West Virginia site were used to characterize core of the Tuscarora Sandstone from a vertical well in Preston County WV, the Preston-119 from a depth of 7,165 to 7,438 ft. The pr...
A detailed gravity survey was carried out for the entire Carson Sink in western Nevada (Figure 1) through a subcontract to Zonge Engineering, Inc. The Carson Sink is a large composite basin containing three known, blind high-temperature geothermal systems (Fallon Airbase, Stillwat...
Critically stressed fault segments have a relatively high likelihood of acting as fluid flow conduits (Sibson, 1994). As such, the tendency of a fault segment to slip or to dilate provides an indication of which faults or fault segments within a geothermal system are critically st...
EGS field projects have not sustained production at rates greater than half of what is needed for economic viability. The primary limitation that makes commercial EGS infeasible is our current inability to cost-effectively create high-permeability reservoirs from impermeable, igne...
Contains Excel data files used to quantifiably rank the geothermal potential of each of the young volcanic centers of the Cascade and Aleutian Arcs using world power production volcanic centers as benchmarks. Also contains shapefiles used in play fairway analysis with power plant...
Structural controls of 426 geothermal systems in the Great Basin region including western Nevada, central Nevada, northwestern Nevada, northeastern Nevada, east-central Nevada, eastern California, southern Oregon, and western Utah were analyzed with literature research, air photos...
Data includes Directional Cooling-Induced Fracturing (DCIF) testing data using westerly granite blocks. This submission includes data from two samples of westerly granite, lab sample 7 and 8. Files contain stress, temperature and acoustic emission data acquired during polyaxial, l...
Detailed geologic mapping (1:24,000 scale), structural and geochemical analyses, and integration of available geophysical and well-field data were utilized to assess the structural controls of the Neal Hot Springs geothermal field in eastern Oregon. The geothermal field lies withi...
Hourly steam use data for all significant buildings from the fiscal year (FY) 2017 (1 July 2016 30 June 2017) are provided. The total annual campus heating load in FY 2017 was about 0.81 trillion Btu (283,000 MWth-hrs).
The data are presented as a spreadsheet, detailing on an ho...
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...
Directional Cooling-Induced Fracturing (DCIF) experiments were conducted on rectangular Westerly granite blocks (width=depth=4.0", height=2.0"). Liquid nitrogen was poured in a small, 1"-diameter copper cup attached to the top of the sample, and the resulting acoustic emissions (A...
