Reservoir management is key in order to optimize the performance and limit the maintenance costs for a field. Geothermal deals with hot brines coming up from deep in the Earth, sometimes both brine and steam are being produced which bring about various physical and chemical reactions. These reactions can ultimately affect the power produced by causing scaling in the wellbore and surface facilities as well. Therefore it is key to implement the proper treatment plan to ensure you don't cause scaling in your wellbore or facilities in order to optimize heat output. Kurita Europe GmbH is a worldwide leader in water treatment for many different industries and it was great to have Hande on to discuss how they are helping Geothermal projects optimize their production system.
This week we sit down with Hande Sile of Kurita Europe GmbH to talk about proper maintenance of your Geothermal project to ensure that you are getting the most heat and power out of your system while not causing damage to your wellbore and facilities. Longevity of your field is vital in terms of maximizing the heat and power you can extract and revenues that you can generate while also lowering your operating costs.
