Data gathering was a effort of many local and natfonal -agencies and other persona and organisations in the private sector. with a l l reporting processes, there is a development in the format and content of report, to changing proposal has showed that given sufficient information about the geothermal field, it is possible, and desirable, at an early stage to perform quick tests as to the viability of the field for future use for electricity generation.
