- Summary
- Improve modeling of flow in fracture-dominated reservoirs. There is a need for realistic models of fractured reservoirs because long-term, economic operation of geothermal reservoirs requires that re-injection be used to recharge fluid and recover additional thermal energy. However, flow on fractures can cause short-circuits and prematurely cool the produced fluid. In addition, it is recognized that fractures will often be encountered at commercial reservoir scales and that these fractures can significantly affect flow. Realistic fracture models can help both in designing re-injection strategies and in operation of fractured reservoirs.
