Petroleum reservoir analysis methods are applied to simple closed geothermal reservoirs that produce by internal steam drive. Relations are presented for the reservoir temperature, pressure, and fluid saturations, with the assumption that the fluids are produced according to their respective relative permeabilities. Calculated performances are given for various types of reservoirs. Results indicate that hot-water reservoirs can have complicated behaviors, including changing from production of hot water to dry steam.
