1 RESERVOIR MODELING & CHARACTERIZATION TOOLS: APPLYING METHODS & TOOLS FROM THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY TO ENHANCE GEOTHERMAL RESOURCES Jacques CHOURAKI 1
2 NEW TOOLS & METHODS CURRENTLY, GEOSCIENTIFIC STUDIES, BASED ON TRADITIONAL GEOPHYSICAL APPROACHES (MAGNETOTELLURICS (MT), GRAVITY AND MAGNETICS), CAN ADDRESS THE GEOTHERMAL EXPLORATION DRILLING STRATEGY, BUT THE PROBABILITY OF SUCCESS REMAINS LOW, THOUGH HIGHER THAN IN THE OIL & GAS EXPLORATION. IN THIS CONTEXT, WHERE THE OBJECTIVE OF ACHIEVING MUCH HIGHER LEVEL OF SUCCESS WOULD SECURE MORE INVESTORS TOWARDS GEOTHERMAL PROJECTS, THE GEOTREF * CONSORTIUM IS CURRENTLY DEVELOPING A HIGH-END GEOTHERMAL EXPLORATION APPROACH COMBINING STANDARD METHODS WITH ADAPTED METHODS AND SOFTWARE TOOLS ROUTINELY USED IN OIL & GAS EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION TOWARD GEOTHERMAL ENERGY. THIS NEW APPROACH IS GLOBALLY COST-EFFECTIVE BY REDUCING THE RISK OF MAKING INAPPROPRIATE DRILLING OR UNCLEAR STEAM FIELD DEVELOPMENT DECISIONS. THE INITIAL INVESTMENT (PREFEASIBILITY STUDIES) IS HIGHER BUT JUSTIFIED BY A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE RESERVOIR AT THE EARLIEST STAGE OF A PROJECT, AND THE REALIZATION OF RELIABLE RESERVOIR PERFORMANCE FORECASTING. * GEOTREF: MULTIDISCIPLINARY INNOVATION AND DEMONSTRATION PLATFORM FOR THE EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF GEOTHERMAL ENERGY IN FRACTURED RESERVOIRS 2
