Geothermal Exploration Methods

A geothermal reservoir causes inhomogeneity in the physical properties of the subsurface geology due to the high changes in temperature. These physical properties can be ob‐ served by means of varying anomalies from geophysical observations from the surface. These physical properties include electrical conductivity, rock density, magnetic suscepti‐ bility, rock elasticity, and, finally, the tem...

Application of Geochemical Methods in Geothermal Exploration

Subsurface waters have been classified into meteoric water, ocean water, evolved connate water, magmatic water and juvenile water. Geothermal water is mostly meteoric and oceanic water although andesitic waters near subduction areas often contain significant proportions of evolved connate and magmatic waters. Geothermal waters have been classified with respect to their anion and cation contents...

Reconnaissance exploration of potential geothermal sites in Kerman province, using Curie depth calculations

In this paper an indirect method is presented to detect potential geothermal sites in Kerman province, southeast Iran. Geothermal heat flux is one of the main parameters to be investigated in geothermal exploration programs. However, few direct heat flux measurements are available for Iran. Given the proved relation between Curie depths and heat flux, magnetic data can be used to calculate the ...

A Geothermal Exploration Strategy Using High Resolution Aeromagnetic Surveys for the Basin-and-range Province

Basin-and-range geothermal resources are typically fault-controlled, deep-circulation systems. They commonly occur beneath thick sequences of Tertiary and Quaternary basin-fill sediments which hinder understanding of fault geometries and faulting patterns. Recent experience at Dixie Valley and survey of the literature for other systems suggest a low-cost and rapid exploration strategy for estab...
