    1. BP Handbook Meeting Zurich 4.6.2007

    2. Workflow of the meeting What is a BP Handbook? Form of the BP Handbook Title of the sub chapters Presentation of the technical suggestions to the first summary of 9.5.2007 from the partners Discussion AIM: Agreement on the content

    3. What is a BP Handbook? What does European Reference Manual mean? Case studies Methodology Country reports (see also WP3) Should the BP Hand book contain only published material??? Difference between papers on the state of the art (WP3) and the BP Handbook? Should not drift in a too academic direction, but be very pragmatic for users who are not yet familiar with the matter? Should include the potential of geothermal energy across Europe for political decision makers? Comments Steering Committee ?

    4. Comments on the title Title: Chapter 1 of the European Reference Manual for the development of Unconventional Geothermal Resources and Enhanced Geothermal Systems Chapter 1a of the Best Practice Handbook on the definition of innovative concepts for investigating geothermal energy (or site?) Chapter 1b of the Best Practice Handbook on generic studies for Unconventional Geothermal Resources and Enhanced Geothermal Systems in contrasting geo-environments in Europe Comments 1. The title of the Part 1a seems to me not very precise. The point is that "innovative concepts" are equally applicable both to "Case studies" (Part 1a) and to "Generic studies" (Part 1b). Explanation of generic studies: Generic studies are performed when the real field situation cannot be accessed. This includes computer simulations, laboratory investigations and field experiments. Comments 2. If the Part 1b is planned to be devoted to the methodological studies it is not necessary to include in the title the words "in contrasting geo-environments in Europe". Generic studies are a kind of theoretical (synthetic) studies. Sense of completely general studies? A general study always has to refer to a given problem (continental or site specific problem) with determined aspect of a problem by modeIing or lab measurements, etc.

    11. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook Chapter 1 a Definition of innovative concepts for investigating geothermal sites Overview over innovative methods to define geothermal reservoirs appropriate for EGS technology in Europe Future innovative approaches would be strongly favoured by a close support between academic fundamental research and engineers. This Interplay between academic and engineering research has to extend over multiple scales. The investigation of geothermal sites requires different scales to be considered, ranging from continental down to a specific site and reservoir scale. The investigation is conducted through a variety of research institutions. Universities play a leading role in fundamental research and evaluation of new methods, strongly focused on the large scale investigation Basic aims: Understanding processes on large scale to define new resources and smaller scales to engineer reservoirs better

    12. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook (1a) SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM New concepts on the understanding of processes related to the accumulation of geothermal energy. An integrated earth system approach Definition of the geothermal potential across the European continent on different scales. Base for the definition of the energy mix in the single EU member states from a geothermal point of view The concept shall address the well-defined and in part already exploited reservoirs and provide a tool to search for unknown resources in Europe on the basis of process related investigations. TECHNICAL PROGRAM In contrast engineering experts tend to cover reservoir scale applications. Improvement of existing concepts for reservoir engineering and in cooperation with scientific approaches test new approaches

    13. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook (1a)

    14. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook (1a) Outcome: Definition of an investigation concept To be discussed: Continental scale Regional scale Resource and reservoir level

    15. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook (1a) Continental scale (I): 3D lithosphere (strength) models allow continent-wide studies related to geothermal energy. They shall provide a large-scale overview and first order conceptual models of favourable conditions for enhanced geothermal energy in the European continent. Lithosphere strength depends mainly on heat flow and Moho depth (due to material composition), and secondly on the stress field of the lithosphere. Depth to Moho and surface heatflow allow derivation of the depth of the base of the thermal Lithosphere, which can be an important information for geothermal energy Should deep lithosphere be included in the BP Handbook? We can drill (economically) only the top 5-6 km of the lithosphere. Deep lithospheric processes and thickness of the thermal lithosphere is mainly important from theoretical viewpoint, and from scale analysis. In scale analysis I mean geodynamic/lithospheric processes result in heat flow anomalies in the order of the thickness of the lithosphere. Smaller heat flow anomalies have different causes.

    16. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook (1a) Continental scale (II): Seismic tomography can provide essential information on rock densities at a regional scale. at large depth and at a continental scale Add MT studies at continental scale Further large-scale geophysical data (e.g. gravity, electro-magnetic, and seismic surveys) can be included. A process-oriented approach is achieved using thermo-mechanical or thermodynamic lithosphere models. This approach shall provide new concepts leading to the detection of unknown resources.

    17. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook (1a) Regional scale On a regional scale geothermal resources can be analysed structurally on the basis of 3D geological models. Key data are: field geology (better remote sensing to large scale for field geology) Temperature distribution Large structural features (fault / tectonic structures) Seismics and MT on a more regional scale

    18. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook (1a) Resources and reservoir level Key questions to be addressed in this concept: How should a resource analysis be done? How should a reservoir be accessed? Integrated geophysical exploration such as developed in the I-GET project (combination of 2D and 3D seismic and magnetotelluric studies) and joint inversion methods can enhance the geometric information of the 3D geological models. The physical properties, however, provide further information on mechanical and electric properties of the region, which can contribute to the understanding of the hydrologic conditions. On the same level investigation on the rheology, stress field determination, geochemistry and hydrology can provide information on geothermal fluids and the regional-scale fluid circulation pattern. Resource analysis using coupled thermal-hydraulic-chemical numerical simulations can provide detailed investigation of the annual extractable geothermal energy. Especially, the hydraulic and chemical conditions of a potential geothermal area, necessary for more detailed prediction, require a detailed understanding of local processes on reservoir level.

    24. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook (1b) Generic studies are performed when the real field situation cannot be accessed. This includes computer simulations, laboratory investigations and field experiments. The ultimate goal is to characterize and predict successful reservoir assessment, through generic studies. This could be achieved by applying the following strategy (workflow):

    25. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook (1b) Definition of criterions that play a important role for the success of EGS / UGR projects Evaluation of "critical values" (if exists) for each criterion. Quantify importance of each criterion in order to allow heat extraction and evaluate critical values requested for successful operations (may be an "importance coefficient", from 1 to 5 can be evaluated for each parameter). Several procedures can be envisaged: Numerically reproduce the observations from successful reservoirs and isolate key parameter/structure/critical values (i.e. major fault zones for the characterization of the Soultz reservoir) Laboratory experiments under typical stress and temperature situations Investigating processes and quantifying interactions (i.e. permeability creation through stimulation) by field laboratories experiments. Of course, the critical values and importance coefficient of these key parameters or criterions must be in agreement with known successful UGR/EGS examples around the world. Plan for future joint research project rather than as a contents of the Handbook to be published soon. Should the BP Hand book contain only published material???

    26. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook (1b) Criterions (key parameters): Heat flow; Stress field; Hydraulic information; Structural features; Mineralogy, Petrophysics, Geochemistry rock type - impact on drilling; population density; Seismic risk An energetic engineer needs 2 or 3 parameters: Ultimate criterions: Temperature, pressure Flow rate Water chemistry (less important) The rest of the parameters, just help to determine these 2-3 parameters. How do we can quantify these parameters? a) From case studies, b) From modelling.

    27. Suggestions to the content of the BP Handbook (1b) Criterions (key parameters): Heat flow; Stress field; Hydraulic information; Structural features; Mineralogy, Petrophysics, Geochemistry rock type - impact on drilling; population density; Seismic risk “Generalization" of the parameters? Table for different reservoirs (type of environment) and the values of the parameters in the different type of reservoirs are given.
