Porosity and permeability data from published and unpublished sources for the St. Peter and Mt. Simon Sandstones in the Illinois Basin.
These studies undertook detailed analyses of the formations within the Cambro-Ordovician strata above the Mt. Simon Sandstone in the Illinois Basin, including the St. Peter Sandstone, for geological storage and mineral potential.
These studies undertook detailed analyses of the Mt. Simon Sandstone in the Illinois Basin for geological storage and sequestration, and brine extraction.
Grid-scale energy storage has been identified as a needed technology to support the continued build-out of intermittent renewable energy resources. As of April 2017, the U.S. had approximately 24.2 GW of energy storage on line, compared to 1,081 GW of installed generation capacity...
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 all the inputs used and output produced from Matlab for the environmental analysis of an improved hybrid geothermal district heating and cooling (GDHC) system with a heat pump, without a heat pump, and for a hot water GDHC. Detailed descriptions of the conten...
The following information is provided about the design of deeps wells constructed in the Illinois Basin to store, sequester, or dispose of CO2, natural gas, and industrial wastes.
The Portland Basin is a prime location to assess the feasibility of DDU-TES because natural geologic conditions provide thermal and hydraulic separation from overlying aquifers that would otherwise sweep away stored heat. Under the Portland Basin, the lower Columbia River Basalt G...
The geocellular model of the St. Peter Sandstone was constructed for the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign DDU feasibility study. Starting with the initial area of review (18.0 km by 18.1 km [11.2 miles by 11.3 miles]) the boundaries of the model were trimmed down to 9.7 ...

Groundwater Chemistry data for the Portland Basin was compiled from published literature, as well as state and federal groundwater quality reports. Mineralogies were identified based on previous literature, as well as XRD and SEM analysis conducted at Portland State University. Up...
During 2017-2019, the U.S. Department of Energy funded six geothermal deep direct-use (DDU) projects to investigate feasibility of DDU for heating, cooling and thermal storage in the United States. In a follow-on study conducted at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), ...
High resolution fiber-optic distributed temperature sensing logs from the Illinois Basin Decatur Project (IBDP) in Decatur, IL were used to model the thermal profile in the Illinois Basin.
Included in this dataset is a spreadsheet with the primary fault information used in the basin model, a spreadsheet with earthquake magnitude estimates, and a figure showing location of faults and microseismicity in the Portland Basin
This folder contains the GEOPHIRES codes and input files for running the base case scenarios for the six deep direct-use (DDU) projects. The six DDU projects took place during 2017-2020 and were funded by the U.S. Department of Energy Geothermal Technologies Office. They investiga...
The objective of this project is to use a multi-disciplinary, three-tiered approach to assess the geothermal resource and determine the feasibility of implementing a large-scale, direct-use facility for the Hawthorne Army Depot (HAD) and the various town and county facilities in H...
Version 2 of the GeoRePORT protocols and excel-based reporting tools. Software allows users to grade the geologic, technical, and socio-economic conditions at a geothermal resource location for both electricity generation and direct-use. Includes tool and protocols for:
* Geologic...
The objective of this project is to use a multi-disciplinary, three-tiered approach to assess the geothermal resource and determine the feasibility of implementing a large-scale, direct-use facility for the Hawthorne Army Depot (HAD) and the various town and county facilities in H...
The subsurface uncertainty at West Virginia University Main Campus is dominated by the uncertainty in the projections of geofluid flowrate in the target formation, the Tuscarora Sandstone. In this paper, three cores from the heterogeneous reservoir, available through West Virginia...
Geology log and drilling prospectus for University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) Energy Farm.
This data set includes sidewall core data from well Cornell ESH #1 (API 31109300030000), known as the Cornell University Borehole Observatory, or CUBO. It is a stratigraphic well drilled to characterize potential EGS resources. The Drilling commenced on June 21, 2022 and total dep...
This dataset contains well log files collected from wells penetrating the Tuscarora Sandstone, structural geologic map of West Virginia and salinity information based on brine geochemistry in West Virginia and Pennsylvania.
A combination of proprietary and free software may be re...
Studies of chemical composition of natural brines from rock formations in the Illinois Basin as part of the University of Illinois deep direct-use feasibility study.
The National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Southern Methodist University Geothermal Laboratory, Eastman Chemical, Turbine Air Systems, and the Electric Power Research Institute are evaluating the feasibility of using geothermal heat to improve the efficiency of natural gas power pl...
Thermal property data for rocks and and minerals and unconsolidated (glacial) sediments units from within and outside the Illinois Basin were compiled for modeling heat transport in the subsurface.
