Utah FORGE 8-3617: Tracer Huff-Puff Tests and Geomechanical Analysis to Measure Evolution of the Fracture Network - 2025 Workshop Presentation
This is a presentation on Integrating Tracer Huff-Puff Tests and Geomechanical Analysis to Measure Evolution of the Fracture Network in EGS Reservoirs by California State University Long Beach, presented by Prof. Matthew Becker. This video slide presentation describes the use of huff-puff tracer experiments, geomechanical strain monitoring, and THMC modeling to better estimate heat-exchange area and fracture network evolution in Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS), improving predictions of reservoir performance and production life span. This presentation was featured at the Utah FORGE R&D Annual Workshop on September 9, 2025. The workshop offered a valuable opportunity to review the progress of Research and Development projects funded under Solicitation 2022-2, which aim to improve our understanding of the key factors influencing Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) reservoir and resource development
