  15. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE (3)DOGGER DATABASE • Hosted on ORACLE platform • Data instructed locally via ACCESS interface

  16. RISK ASSESSMENT • Exploration (mining, geological) • Exploitation (technical, managerial) • Economic/financial (market, institutional, managerial) • Social acceptance (image)

  17. INTEGRATED GEOTHERMAL RESERVOIR MANAGEMENT

  18. RESERVOIR ENGINEERING ASSESSMENT OF RESERVOIR STRUCTURE

  19. RESERVOIR ENGINEERING. RESERVOIR LAYER STACKING

  20. RESERVOIR ENGINEERING. TEMPERATURE DECLINE AT PRODUCTION WELL VS. RESERVOIR EQUIVALENTS

  21. RESERVOIR ENGINEERINGRESERVOIR SIMULATION • CORE • Calibrated regional model, online with the Dogger database, operated as a reservoir management tool • MODELLING STRATEGIES • Regional. Overall reservoir • Subregional. Multidoublet areas • Local. Single doublet systems • OBJECTIVES • Reservoir life • Hydrodynamic interferences • Solute transport • Sustainability assessments

  22. RESERVOIR SIMULATIONSUB REGIONAL DOMAIN TRANSMISSIVITY AND INITIAL PRESSURE/TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION

  23. RESERVOIR SIMULATIONSUB REGIONAL DOMAIN TEMPERATURE PATTERNS (YEAR 2005)

  24. RESERVOIR SIMULATIONSUB REGIONAL DOMAIN TEMPERATURE PATTERNS (YEAR 2030)

  25. SUSTAINABLE RESERVOIR DEVELOPMENTSIMULATED SCENARIOS • WORKING ASSUMPTIONS. DESIGN FEATURES • Single/multiple well doublet/triplet heat mining arrays • Homogeneus/heterogeneus reservoir settings • Well life = 20 – 25 yrs • Reservoir life = 20 – 30 yrs (doublet/triplet thermal breakthrough time) • Well spacing = 1000 – 1500 m • Heat mining schemes/schedules • Existing doublet: 0-25 years • Mixed well triplet array: 25-50 years • New well doublet: 50-75 years • DESIGN OBJECTIVE • Avoid undue premature cooling of producing wells • Achieve a minimum 75 years reservoir life
