Utah FORGE 3-2535: Modeling Studies of Energized Steel-Casing Source EM Method for Detecting Stimulated Zone
Numerical modeling Studies for electromagnetic (EM) Data Acquisition Survey Design - this milestone report describes the 3D modeling studies of energized steel-casing source electromagnetic method for detecting stimulated zone at the Utah FORGE Site. FORGE project 3-2535 is planning on using a casing source EM method for detecting and imaging a deep localized stimulated fracture zone at the Utah FORGE site. Details on other stages of the project are included in the linked GDR submissions below.

"description": "This study involves progress that is covered in two earlier milestone reports. First we built a 3D resistivity model (milestone 4.1) derived from the 3D inversion of magnetotelluric data. Next we developed a modeling workflow (milestone 4.2) that efficiently and accurately simulates an energized steel-cased well by replacing it with a number of small equivalent current sources. In this report, using the 3D resistivity model and modeling workflow, we simulate several casing source EM configurations and evaluate sensitivity to the stimulated zone. These results will in turn be used to design the EM data acquisition surveys that we will be leading at the FORGE site."

"description": "This report details and tests the workflow that will be used to simulate steel well casings in deviated production/extraction boreholes at at the Utah FORGE site. Boreholes will be electrically energized and will serve as data sources for future proposed electromagnetic borehole surveys, which will be used to delineate/estimate the size and porosity of the main FORGE stimulated reservoir."
