37th Stanford Geothermal Workshop
Monday thru' Wednesday
January 30 - February 1, 2012
Fisher Conference Center
Frances C. Arrillaga Alumni Center,
326 Galvez Street,
Stanford, CA 94305-6105 (Google Map)
Workshop Goals
- Bring together Engineers, Scientists and Managers involved in geothermal reservoir studies and developments
- Provide a forum for the exchange of ideas on the exploration, development and use of geothermal resources
- Enable prompt and open reporting of progress
We strongly encourage all scientists and engineers involved in geothermal reservoir technology to attend the workshop.
Papers will be presented on recent research relating to geothermal reservoirs including:
- Case Studies: reservoir response to production, effects of injection, scaling characteristics
- Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS): current and future activities
- Engineering Techniques: reservoir simulation, empirical methods, well tests, tracers
- Field Management: strategies for exploitation, injection, scale inhibition
- Exploration: geophysics, geochemistry, geology, heat flow studies, outflows
- Drilling and Well Bore Flows: well stimulation, bore flow modeling, hydro-fracturing, scaling
- Low Enthalpy Systems: applications of heat pumps, hot dry rock technology
- Geosciences: application of geophysics, geochemistry, thermodynamics and fluid mechanics.
