Abstract

These data and test descriptions comprise a chilled circulation test conducted at the 164' fracture in the EGS Collab Experiment 1 testbed on the 4850 ft level of the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Descriptions of the meta data, design drawings for the flow testing system, and evaluation of the thermistor data are provided here. The test ran from April 2019 through early March of 2020, when testing was concluded at the experiment 1 site. These data are are complementary to the stimulation data provided in another submission which is linked below (i.e. stimulation at the 164' notch). More information about the test itself as well as the rationale and process of data processing is available on the EGS Collab Experiment 1 Long Term Circulation Test wiki page which is also linked below.

EGS Collab Experiment 1: Circulation Testing Processed data

Dataset Fu, Pengcheng ; Knox, Hunter ; Schwering, Paul ; ...

This submission includes processed and reduced data for circulation testing that was conducted at the 164' fracture on the 4850 ft level of the Sanford Underground Research Facility. The circulation tests were done to test the flow through the 164' fracture in the EGS Collab Experiment 1 testbed on the 4850 ft level of the Sanford Underground Research Facility in order to validate computer models concerned with flow processes and heat exchange processes in EGS. This data was processed from raw data that is available in the GDR submission linked below: "EGS Collab Circulation Testing Raw Data and Documentation." Pythonmore »« less
EGS Collab Experiment 1: Time-series geochemistry data of the long-term circulation test

Dataset Zhang, Yuran ; Horne, Roland N. ; Hawkins, Adam J. ; ...

This submission presents the weekly geochemistry data of the long-term flow test performed within EGS Collab Experiment 1 from early 2019 to early 2020. The fluids from each producing borehole/interval (PI, PB, PDT and PST) along with the injectate were sampled roughly weekly from April 2019 to January 2020 for geochemistry analysis. The geochemical measurement was part of a long-term microbial profiling project (see details in the PNAS paper linked below). Additional background and methodologies are available in the PNAS paper linked bellow.
EGS Collab Experiment 3: 4100 Tensile Stimulation and Thermal Circulation Testing

Dataset Vermeul, Vince ; Strickland, Chris ; Sirota, Dana ; ...

These data and test descriptions are from a set of primarily tensile hydraulic-fracture stimulations in wells E2-TC and E2-TU and a subsequent chilled water circulation test conducted by injecting in well E2-TU on the 4100 level of the Sandford Underground Research Facility (SURF). Stimulations were carried out between April and May of 2022. The thermal circulation test ran semi-continuously from May 19 through August 26, 2022, though chilled water injection began on June 3. More information about the test, rationale, and processing of data is available on the EGS Collab project page, which is linked below.
EGS Collab Experiment 1: Core Logs

Dataset Dobson, Patrick ; Horner, Jake ; Smith, Megan ; ...

Core logs from the EGS Collab project Experiment 1 for the stimulation (Injection) well (E1-I), the Production well (E1-P), and monitoring wells (E1-OT, E1-OB, E1-PST, E1-PSB, E1-PDT, and E1-PDB) on the 4850 Level of SURF (the Sanford Underground Research Facility), single PDF file, 5-ft run intervals. In the monitoring well IDs, "O" indicates that the well is orthogonal to the anticipated fracture plane, "P" indicates that the well is parallel to the anticipated fracture plane, "S" indicates a shallow well, "D" indicates a deep well, "T" refers to top, and "B" refers to bottom. Logs include: experiment number; borehole ID;more »« less
EGS Collab Experiment 1: Microseismic Monitoring

Dataset Schoenball, Martin ; Ajo-Franklin, Jonathan ; Robertson, Michelle ; ...

The U.S. Department of Energy's Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) Collab project aims to improve our understanding of hydraulic stimulations in crystalline rock for enhanced geothermal energy production through execution of intensely monitored meso-scale experiments. The first experiment is being performed at the 4850 ft level of the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF), approximately 1.5 km below the surface at Lead, South Dakota. Here we report on microseismic monitoring of repeated stimulation experiments and subsequent flow tests between two boreholes in the Poorman Formation. Stimulations were performed at several locations in the designated injection borehole at flow rates from 0.1 tomore »« less
