| Abstract | History matching simulations were carried out for the Ogiri geothermal field with two kinds of numerical model: porous medium model and MINC model. The MINC method was applied to the grid blocks of shallow zone where steam-water two-phase condition remains during exploitation stage. Other grid blocks were treated the same as in the porous medium model. Simulated results with the MINC model show better match with pressure and temperature data at one monitoring well located in the shallow zone of reservoir. |
