Francisco Rojas 8 Aug 2014

The goals of the conference are to 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; and to enable prompt and open reporting of progress. We strongly encourage all scientists and engineers involved in geothermal reservoir technology to attend the workshop.

Dates: January 26-28, 2015
Location: Frances C. Arrillaga Alumni Center
326 Galvez St., Stanford, CA 94305-6105

Topics:
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.

Papers:
Papers accepted for presentation and/or publication are produced on a standard template that we supply. The papers will be available as a Proceedings CD at the Workshop and subsequently published in the online collection. To submit an abstract for consideration, please click on the “Registration” link in the left side-bar. If accepted, a full paper must be submitted by the due date (described in teh Author Instructions).
