Gas Propagated Borehole Fracture Model And Simulation
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...

Reservoir Stimulation Optimization with Operational Monitoring for Creation of EGS
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...

Chlorite, Biotite, Illite, Muscovite and Feldspar Dissolution Kinetics at Variable pH and Temperatures up to 280 deg C
Chemical reactions pose an important but poorly understood threat to EGS long-term success because of their impact on fracture permeability. This report summarizes the dissolution rate equations for layered silicates where data were lacking for geothermal systems. Here we report ...
