Probing of high temperature geothermal reservoirs from electrical methods : HiTI EC project and the IDDP |
|
|
The general objective of the HiTI EC Project is to
provide geophysical and geochemical sensors and
methods to evaluate deep geothermal reservoirs up to
supercritical conditions (T>380°C). Supercritical
geothermal wells are still non-conventional but may
provide a very efficient way to produce electricity from
clean, renewable source. A deep geothermal well is to
be drilled in 2008 for this purpose into the NE Icelandic
Krafla volcanic zone, as part of the IDDP (“Iceland Deep
Drilling Project”).
Aimed at exploring supercritical reservoirs, HiTI is to
develop build and test in the field new laboratory or
downhole tools and methods for deep high-
temperature boreholes and a highly corrosive
environment.
The new set of tools and methods has been chosen to
describe in particular the supercritical reservoir
structure and dynamics.
