Title: Results of Repeat Tracer Tests at Ohaaki, NZ

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/895961· OSTI ID:895961

During 20 years of tracer testing at Ohaaki a number of wells have been used more than once as tracer injection sites. In studying the various responses obtained it has been necessary to consider variations in the experimental test conditions before making comparisons which relate to field conditions. Some very significant changes have occurred in the field hydrology in recent years and water flow speeds as high as those encountered at Wairakei have been demonstrated.
