OSTI ID:5282173

The systematic exploration and development of the Cerro Prieto geothermal resource by the Comision Federal de Electricidad (CFE) has resulted in a vast accumulation of data. These data provide an opportunity to conduct a case study of the exploitation of a geothermal system. This paper will discuss the LBL's efforts to apply various interpretation methods to the Cerro Prieto well logs, present a resulting geologic model, summarize the major interpretation problems encountered and outline the general direction of future well-log interpretation studies. 12 refs.
