Since the initial drilling in 1959 within the Beowawe Geothermal Field in north-central Nevada, a total of sixteen wells have been drilled. Numerous flow tests, build-ups, interference tests and injectivity tests have been conducted on eight of these wells. All data indicate that the geologically complicated Beowawe system is charged from a deep carbonate reservoir. The wells exhibit high productivities from a very large reservoir.
