Utah FORGE Project 3-2535: Numerical Modeling of Energized Steel-Casing Source for Imaging Stimulated Zone

Publicly accessible License

This short report details and tests the workflow that will be used to simulate steel well casings in deviated production/extraction boreholes at at the Utah FORGE site. Boreholes will be electrically energized and will serve as data sources for future proposed electromagnetic borehole surveys, which will be used to delineate/estimate the size and porosity of the main FORGE stimulated reservoir. FORGE project 3-2535 is planning on using a casing source EM method for detecting and imaging a deep localized stimulated fracture zone at the Utah FORGE site. Details on other stages of the project are included in the linked GDR submissions below.
