Raft River Geothermal Injection Well Seven (RRGI-7) is an intermediate-depth injection well designed to accept injected water in the 600 to 1000 m (2000 to 3500 ft) depth range. It has one barefoot leg, and it was drilled so that additional legs could be added later; if there are problems with intermediate-depth injection, one or more additional legs could be directionally drilled from the current well bore. This report describes the drilling and completion of RRGI-7 and provides a brief summary of preliminary testing. It includes daily drilling reports, as well as records of logging, coring, and containment techniques used during drilling operations.
