Characterizing favourable structural settings of geothermal reservoirs in extensional regions: Enhanced exploration strategies
Exploration of geothermal systems is commonly hampered by the risk of unsuccessful drilling. A major problem in selecting well sites is that the favorable settings of known systems are generally not adequately characterized. This is particularly important in amagmatic regions, wh...

Modeling Responses of Naturally Fractured Geothermal Reservoir to Low-Pressure Stimulation
Hydraulic shearing is an appealing reservoir stimulation strategy for Enhanced Geothermal Systems. It is believed that hydro-shearing is likely to simulate a fracture network that covers a relatively large volume of the reservoir whereas hydro-fracturing tends to create a small nu...
