Science & Technology: New Book on Geothermal Energy Exploration

Geothermal Exploration - Global Strategies and Applications (IGA)

Authors: Colin Harvey, Graeme Beardsmore. Inga Moeck and Horst RĂ¼ter

Geothermal Exploration introduces the subject of geothermal energy and its development around the world.

The text defines a series of 'geothermal play types' based on geological setting and then presents strategies and methodologies appropriate for each play type to move a geothermal exploration program to the stage of committing to exploration drilling.

These methodologies include permitting, environmental, geology, geochemistry, geophysics and remote sensing techniques used throughout the world for specific play types. The book covers a large number of geoscientific techniques and focuses on their applications to both convective and conductive geothermal systems, with extensive reference to the international literature.

Price: EUR 43 or USD 48. Order from the IGA.......
