Geothermal state of the deep Western Alpine Molasse Basin, France-Switzerland

TL;DR: In this paper, the average geothermal gradient of the Western Alpine Molasse Basin (WAMB) is estimated to be around 25-30°C/km, and the authors use this data to build the first well data-driven 3D geostatistical temperature model of the whole basin and generate probabilistic maps of isotherms at 70 and 140°C.

20 years of exploitation of the Yarragadee aquifer in the Perth Basin of Western Australia for direct-use of geothermal heat

TL;DR: The Yarragadee aquifer has been explored and exploited for water supply since the late 19th century and the first direct-use geothermal project for bathing and swimming was implemented in 1997 as discussed by the authors.

BasinVis 1.0: A MATLAB®-based program for sedimentary basin subsidence analysis and visualization

TL;DR: A new software package to process and visualize stratigraphic setting and subsidence evolution of sedimentary basins from well data, implemented in MATLAB®, a multi-paradigm numerical computing environment, and employs two numerical methods: interpolation and subsiding analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

A 3-D wellbore simulator (WELLTHER-SIM) to determine the thermal diffusivity of rock-formations

TL;DR: A numerical simulator has been developed for modeling the drilling fluid circulation and shut-in processes of geothermal wellbores, and for the in-situ determination of thermal diffusivities of rocks, and has been successfully applied to two wellbore drilled in geothermal fields of Japan and Mexico.

Rpm-webbsys

TL;DR: A web-based computer system to compute static formation temperatures was created that is useful to reproduce thermal recovery or shut-in processes and may be executed using any computing devices with an internet access.

Heat Flow in South Africa

TL;DR: Benfield and Weiss as discussed by the authors measured the conductivities of specimens of rock from some of the boreholes in which temperature measurements had been made, and discussed the results of these measurements.

Review: Geothermal heat as a tracer of large-scale groundwater flow and as a means to determine permeability fields

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of coupled groundwater and heat transfer theory is followed by an introduction to geothermal measurement techniques, and temperature-depth profiles (geotherms) and heat discharge at springs to infer hydraulic parameters and processes are discussed.

A simple method to determine heat production from gamma-ray logs

TL;DR: In this paper, a linear relationship between the gamma ray GR and the heat production A was shown to be valid for a wide variety of lithologies extending from granite through gneiss, carbonate and amphibolite to basaltic rocks, with an error lower than 10%.
