; ; ;

Natural recharge of fluid filled geothermal reservoirs is shown to be important in the development of these reservoirs and in increasing geothermal energy reserves. Research contributions on methods for calculating water influx and heat transfer in petroleum reservoirs are discussed. The need to forecast the performance of geothermal fluid reservoirs subject to water influx is emphasized. (14 refs.)
