Title: Comparison of theoretical and observed pressure profiles in geothermal wells

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7369390

Two-phase water-steam flow conditions in geothermal wells are studied aimed at predicting pressure drops in these wells. Five prediction methods were selected to be analyzed and compared with each other and with actual pressure measurements. These five correlations were tested on five wells: three in New Zealand, one in Mexico, and one in the Philippines.
