Inverse Modelling of the Kawerau Geothermal Reservoir, NZ

DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/895955· OSTI ID:895955
In this paper we describe an existing model of the Kawerau geothermal field and attempts to improve this model using inverse modeling techniques. A match of model results to natural state temperatures and pressures at three reference depths are presented. These are used to form and ''objective function'' to be minimized by inverse modeling.
