Geothermal energy is a remarkable natural and renewable resource, attracted growing
interest due to its eco-friendly characteristics. Indonesia, located in the pacific ring of fire …

The key element in the characterization, assessment and development of geothermal
energy systems is the resource type. Throughout the past 30 years many resource type …

Understanding the mechanical behaviour of reservoir rock under different temperatures with
different cooling conditions is necessary for safe and effective deep geo-engineering …

The effect of high temperatures up to 800° C on the physical and mechanical characteristics
and fracturing behaviour of Beishan granite is experimentally studied with a combination of …

A fractured reservoir can support and sustain long-term geothermal energy extraction
operations. The process of injecting cold water to extract hot water from a fractured reservoir …

Our previous study (Song et al., 2018) proposed a novel enhanced geothermal system
(EGS) with multilateral wells and demonstrated that it had greater heat extraction …

The complex fracture network is necessary to provide flow and heat transfer channels for
working fluid of an enhanced geothermal system (EGS). It is significant to compare heat …

We propose a novel multilateral-well coaxial closed-loop geothermal system (CCGS) to help
realize the commercial exploitation of hot dry rock. Compared with the enhanced geothermal …

Operational parameters optimization is of great significance to improve overall heat
extraction performance from the hydrothermal or enhanced geothermal system. Injection …

This paper is a comprehensive review of the potential for remote sensing in exploring for
geothermal resources. Temperature gradients in the earth crust are typically 25–30° C per …
