MODELING OF THE FAULT TYPE GEOTHERMAL RESERVOIR (DACHNY SITE

Fault-type geothermal fields are common in recent volcanism areas. The recent model of the Dachny site, Mutnovsky geothermal field (Kamchatka, Russia) represented a single fault production zone with the heat exchange to ambient rocks expressed in terms of “confining beds TOUGH2 option” (Kiryukhin, S...

Description
Summary:Fault-type geothermal fields are common in recent volcanism areas. The recent model of the Dachny site, Mutnovsky geothermal field (Kamchatka, Russia) represented a single fault production zone with the heat exchange to ambient rocks expressed in terms of “confining beds TOUGH2 option” (Kiryukhin, Stanford Workshop 2004) was improved by add of the 5-layer external grid connected to the production zone. Model calibration against 2002-2004 exploitation data and modeling of the possible future scenarios to maintain sustainability of the 50 MWe PP (Dachny) discussed.
