| Abstract | Reinjection is significantly important for sustainable development of geothermal resources which is regarded as a difficult subject worldwide. Reinjection tests have been implemented in China for many years in different geothermal fields. This report presents the work performed in three fields both for sandstone and limestone reservoirs. Significant achievement has obtained through the sophisticated design and operation during the tests. Limestone reinjection work in Xiong County of Hebei province has been implemented since 2009, the water level drop has been extraordinarily controlled. Sandstone reinjection in Shaanxi and Shandong has achieved periodical success during the last two heating season. |
