Utah FORGE 3-2417: Simulation Meshes and Results from Extended Circulation and Pulse Interference Testing
This dataset contains numerical simulation meshes and modeling results from extended circulation and pulse interference tests conducted between Utah FORGE wells 16A(78)-32 and 16B(78)-32. The simulations were performed as part of the FOGMORE Utah FORGE project (Fiber Optic MOnitoring for Reservoir Evolution) under Utah FORGE R&D Project 3-2417. The work was carried out by researchers at the University of Oklahoma and Rice University.
Data include mesh definitions, pressure and temperature distributions, and permeability changes derived from different modeling scenarios. These scenarios incorporate constant and stress-dependent permeability models, as well as updated discrete fracture network (DFN) representations of the stimulated reservoir volume (SRV). Results from both short-term (26-day) and long-term (365-day) circulation tests are included, along with simulations of three pulse interference tests. The data are provided in a structured archive and accompanied by a PDF summary of key modeling results and visualizations.
