| Abstract | Results are presented of analyses of downhole pressure buildup data for wells located in the Redondo Creek area of the Baca Geothermal Field. The downhole drilling information and pressure/temperature surveys are first interpreted to locate zones at which fluid enters the wellbore from the fractured formation and to estimate the initial reservoir temperature and pressure in these zones. Interpretation of the buildup data for each well considers wellbore effects, the CO2 content of the fluid and differentiates between the single-phase and tow phase portions of the data. Estimates for the effective formation kh are made for selected wells. |
