| Abstract |
Geothermometry, a relatively low-cost exploration technique, is commonly used to estimate geothermal reservoir temperatures prior to drilling. This approach provides insight into deep reservoir temperatures without the logistical and financial requirements associated with drilling. In the early exploration stage, it enables the distinction between more and less attractive prospects. Empirical geothermometry (EG), also known as ‘traditional’ or ‘classical’, has been widely used in geothermal exploration due to its simplicity. However, each empirical geothermometer has its own specific nuances and is relatively imprecise. In contrast, multicomponent thermodynamic geothermometry (MTG) offers increased precision, providing deeper insights into geologic and hydrologic conditions that may influence the results. Moreover, MTG allows for testing of these conditions, thereby enhancing confidence in the results. For the Picard River geothermal system in northern Dominica, where previous studies |
