Utah FORGE: Well 16A(78)-32 Core-Flooding Experiment Results

Published by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory | Department of Energy | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2025-03-13T17:09:09Z
This dataset contains core-flood experimental results from the Utah FORGE project, generated through laboratory tests at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The experiments were conducted at temperatures of 100C and 200C using core samples from the 16A(78)-32 well. The primary objectives of these tests were to determine the change in calculated hydraulic fracture and permeability over time, under constant confining pressure, in predominantly constant flowrate conditions, while monitoring effluent chemistry as a function of time. The dataset includes measurements related to elapsed time, sample pH, elemental concentrations, and pressure conditions at different core depths. Additional data captures inlet and outlet pressures, pump flowrate, brine temperature, reactor pressure, and calculated hydraulic parameters.
