Recent Developments in Reservoir Engineering in New Zealand

Conference ·
OSTI ID:889489

Over 1982-83 there have been substantial increases in the reservoir engineering contribution to the New Zealand geothermal programme. This has taken four forms: more extensive and detailed analysis of pre- and post-production performance, primarily at Broadlands; the extensive use of high-resolution pressure gauges to carry out interference tests at Rotorua, Ngawha and Broadlands; the installation of an extensive monitoring system at Rotorua; and the commencement of detailed simulation of Broadlands.
