RESOURCE ASSESSMENT AND MANAGEMENT
• Conceptual models

VOLUMETRIC ASSESSMENT / RESERVOIR MODELLING
16
To evaluate the resource up on completing the surface exploration - is to carry out a volumetric assessment of the resource. This assessment is improved by the information gained from the exploration drilling, often by applying Monte Carlo statistics to the volumetric assessment.
Reservoir modelling is the key to sustainable reservoir management. It includes among others:
3D finite element models of the geothermal fields where all available data are used as input.
Predicts the pressure and temperature decline of the reservoir with time.
