Science & Technology: Free Webinar on Geothermal Exploration using Geophysical Tools

Webinar: Geophysical Exploration of Geothermal Plays (SEG Europe Regional Advisory Committee )

Geothermal exploration is an integral part of developing geothermal installations. It is the basis for decisions about technologies and a major factor to minimize risk. Exploration is a combination of geological, geophysical, geochemical and other methods. It does, in our definition, not include exploration drilling. This webinar concentrates on the geophysical part. The methods to be applied in an individual situation depend on the local mainly geological conditions. To formulate guidelines those conditions can be classified in ‘geothermal play types’ with a comparable geological setting and as a consequence a comparable demand on exploration technologies.
The webinar presents:

  • Roughly, the classification of geothermal play types.
  • The different geophysical methods available as a tool box.
  • Provides recommendations for method use determinations based on play type.

The webinar tries to present geophysical methods understandable to non-geophysicists, avoiding equations and severe mathematics.
