The abstract submission for EGU 2016 is now open! A new session Emerging technologies and challenges in the development of deep geothermal energy has been announced. In this session, novel contributions are invited on laboratory experiments, numerical modeling and field work (or a combination of these) covering the following aspects of deep geothermal energy:
– New developments in hot reservoir characterization (measurements, interpretation techniques etc.)
– Transfer of technologies from oil and gas (completion systems, stimulation techniques etc.)
– Characterization and control of the induced seismicity risk
– Long term processes (chemistry, fluids & mechanics) and their importance for the economics of deep geothermal reservoirs production
The deadline for support applications is 01 December 2015, and the abstract deadline is 13 January 2016. More details from marie.violay@epfl.ch.
