This package includes data and models that support hydraulic fracture stimulation and fluid circulation experiments in the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF). A paper by Schwering et al. (2020) describes the deterministic basis for developing a "common" discrete fracture...
Characterizing the stimulation mode of a fracture is critical to assess the hydraulic efficiency and the seismic risk related to deep fluid manipulations. We have monitored the three-dimensional displacements of a fluid-driven fracture during water injections in a borehole at ~1.5...
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...
Provided here is a set of presentation slides detailing stress-dependent permeability in FORGE granitoid fractures and how fracture slip affects permeability. It outlines empirical correlations between permeability, stress, and fracture aperture, emphasizing that mechanically clos...
This package includes data from two days of testing at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) on the 4100 level. The tests were performed in borehole TV4100 in the battery charging alcove south of the Yates shaft. TV4100 is a vertical borehole ~50 meters deep. A series o...
This dataset contains the final technical report and closeout presentation for Utah FORGE Project 4-2492, which investigated advanced stimulation design and diagnostic approaches to improve fracture uniformity, inter-well connectivity, and energy recovery efficiency in enhanced ge...
This layer traces apparent topographic and air-photo lineaments in the area around Pagosa springs in Archuleta County, Colorado. It was made in order to identify possible fault and fracture systems that might be conduits for geothermal fluids.
Geothermal fluids commonly utilize fa...
This submission includes processed and reduced data for circulation testing that was conducted at the 164' fracture on the 4850 ft level of the Sanford Underground Research Facility. The circulation tests were done to test the flow through the 164' fracture in the EGS Collab Exper...
Subsurface data analysis, reservoir modeling, and machine learning (ML) techniques have been applied to the Brady Hot Springs (BHS) geothermal field in Nevada, USA to further characterize the subsurface and assist with optimizing reservoir management. Hundreds of reservoir simulat...
These data and test descriptions comprise a chilled circulation test conducted at the 164' fracture in the EGS Collab Experiment 1 testbed on the 4850 ft level of the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Descriptions of the meta data, design drawings for the flow testing system,...
Geothermal power plants typically show decreasing heat and power production rates over time. Mitigation strategies include optimizing the management of existing wells increasing or decreasing the fluid flow rates across the wells and drilling new wells at appropriate locations. Th...
Includes data for measured inert tracer breakthrough curves first reported in Hawkins (2020) (Water Resources Research). In addition, this submission includes the production well temperature measurements first reported in Hawkins et al. (2017a) (Water Resources Research, volume 53...
These data and test descriptions are from a set of primarily tensile hydraulic-fracture stimulations in wells E2-TC and E2-TU and a subsequent chilled water circulation test conducted by injecting in well E2-TU on the 4100 level of the Sandford Underground Research Facility (SURF)...
Information around the plug-and-perf treatment design at Utah FORGE by Fervo Energy.
Objective and Purpose:
Develop a multistage hydraulic stimulation approach designed specifically to target the top three factors that control the technical and commercial viability of an EGS sys...
Included are results from shear reactivation experiments on laboratory faults pre-loaded close to failure and reactivated by the injection of fluid into the fault. The sample comprises a single-inclined-fracture (SIF) transecting a cylindrical sample of Westerly granite.
All expe...
This package includes data and footage from two rounds of downhole camera surveys performed at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) on the 4850 level. The exercise was performed once on 25 May 2018 and once on 21 December 2018. On May 25th, the first round was done dur...
The Newberry Volcano EGS Demonstration in central Oregon, a 5 year project begun 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 ru...
Submission includes data from laboratory slide-hold-slide tests, combined with flow through tests, conducted on Westerly granite with 30 degree sawcut. Tests were conducted with a constant confining pressure of 30 MPa with an average pore pressure of 10 MPa at temperatures of 23 a...
Plugging of fracture porosity from mineral precipitation due to injecting cold water into a a geothermal reservoir can impact the overall permeability of the fracture network in the reservoir. This can have serious ramifications on the efficiency of the geothermal resource. Geoche...
This data submission includes the raw time-lapse ERT (electrical resistivity tomography) monitoring data, flow system data, operator logs, E4D (https://e4d.pnnl.gov) inversion files, and metadata necessary to reproduce the 4D ERT inversion for the Oct. 24 through Nov. 7 2018 post-...
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...
This dataset provides a set of experimental data on the performance of lost circulation materials (LCMs) used in geothermal drilling operations. It includes results from four distinct tests: thermal degradation, viscosity measurements, compression tests, and high-temperature flow ...
The report details a thermal circulation test at Red Raider #2 at the Oil Field Technology Center (OTC) involving staged hot water injections and distributed temperature sensing (DTS) fiber optic measurements. It includes experimental setup, fluid flow and temperature data, therm...
This submission contains pressure and flow time series data from the reservoir testing of Well 58-32. These activities were part of the Utah FORGE Phase 2B site suitability confirmatory testing.
The dataset includes data collected during an extended circulation test conducted at the Utah FORGE site between August 8 and September 5, 2024. It provides uncorrected, raw digital data from the test, along with calibration information and a final report detailing the test proced...
