Transmission Electron Microscope Study of Illite/Smectite, at GCO/DOE 1 Pleasant Bayou Geopressured Geothermal Test Well, Brazoria County, Texas: ABSTRACT
Data on the origin and migration of oil in the highly productive Gulf Coast Tertiary are sparse. What is known with some certainty is that crude oil (1) is most commonly found in old salt-related structures, (2) probably migrated vertically a considerable distance through faultassociated fracture systems, and (3) most likely originated in deeply buried high-pressure marine-slope shales. All oth...
متن کاملHeating in a Geothermal Reservoir
A computer program in Visual Basic 6.0 is written to calculate steam tables for pure water up to 800oC and 1400 bar. The steam tables are created as a DLL (Dynamic Link Library) object with properties: temperature, pressure, specific volume, enthalpy and entropy for liquid and vapor phases, and liquidvapor state. The steam tables can be incorporated in any computer program on the Windows platfo...
متن کاملPrecise Gravimetry and Geothermal Reservoir Management
Modern portable gravimeters can routinely achieve a 5 ugal uncertainty with careful measurement procedures involving multiple station occupations in the same day, and stacking of readings over at least 15 minutes during each occupation. Although further improvements in gravimeter accuracy are feasible, other practical factors relating to repeat surveys of geothermal fields make such improvement...
متن کاملResponse surface method for assessing energy production from geopressured geothermal reservoirs
Background Reducing greenhouse gases and providing the world’s future energy require searching for clean alternative energy resources that can substitute for fossil fuel. Geopressured geothermal reservoirs along the US Gulf Coast are an alternative energy resource which have been considered as marginal and have not been developed extensively. The information available about these resources come...
متن کاملEffects of Coupled Convection and Co2 Injection in Stimulation of Geopressured Geothermal Reservoirs
Geopressured brines are a vast geothermal resource in the US Gulf of Mexico region. In particular, geopressured sandstones near salt domes are potential sources of geothermal energy because salt diapirs with high thermal conductivity may pierce younger, cooler strata. These characteristics enhance transfer heat from older, hotter strata at the base of the diapir into shallower strata. Moreover,...
