WHOLESCALE: Seismic Waveform Data from San Emidio, Nevada 2022

Included here is a link to seismic waveform data collected at San Emidio, Nevada in 2022.  The seismic instruments used were provided by EarthScope Consortium through the EarthScope Primary Instrument Center at New Mexico Tech. Data collected are available here through EarthScope at the link below. Detailed information on instrumentation, deployment, data collection, and data quality are provided in the attached paper.

In the spring of 2022, the WHOLESCALE team deployed 450 SmartSolo seismic instruments at the San Emidio geothermal field in Nevada.  The deployment was executed in three phases: stakes were placed in the ground at locations using hand-held GPS receivers, seismographs were implanted next to the stakes, and seismographs were turned on to begin recording data in April. Three phases were necessary due to the combination of limits on the seismographs' battery life and personnel availability. This was the first project to use the low-power A-to-D mode instead of the standard high-resolution mode, which allowed a trade of a decrease in the digitizer's effective number of bits (from 21.8 to 21.5) for a 30% increase in battery life.

After approximately one month of observation, the seismographs were turned off, removed from the ground, and cleaned on May 6th (157 sites), May 7th (157 sites), and May 8th (136 sites). The data files were downloaded onto portable hard drives. The seismographs were then shipped to the PASSCAL Instrument Center where they were converted from the original (raw) SmartSolo (DLD) format to the more standard SAC at UW and also at the PASSCAL data Instrument Center.  Methods and results of evaluating data quality are included in the attached paper and Word document.

Utah FORGE 2439: Machine Learning for Well 16A(78)-32 Stress Predictions - September 2023 Report

This task completion report documents the development and implementation of machine learning (ML) models for the prediction of in-situ vertical (Sv), minimum horizontal (SHmin) and maximum horizontal (SHmax) stresses in well 16A(78)-32. The detailed description of the experimental work was documented in a previous task report, which is linked below as "December 2022 Report". This 2023 task competition follows the accomplishments outlined the June 2023 report (also linked below), which elaborated the ML model development and validation strategy comprehensively. At this stage, prediction performances of ML models are further improved and implemented carefully for the estimation of in-situ stresses (i.e., Sv, SHmin, and SHmax over the depth ranging from 5000 to 6000 feet in the well 16A(78)-32).  A comparison between ML-based and field-based stresses reflected the excellent harmony in terms of nominal errors at the sampling depths.

Stanford Thermal Earth Model for the Conterminous United States

Provided here are various forms of the Stanford Thermal Earth Model, as well as the data and methods used for its creation. The predictions produced by this model were visualized in two-dimensional spatial maps across the modeled depths (0-7 km) for the conterminous United States. The thermal earth model is made available as an application programming interface (API) and as feature layers on ArcGIS, which are both provided via links below. 

A data-driven spatial interpolation algorithm based on physics-informed graph neural networks was used to develop these national temperature-at-depth maps. The model satisfied the three-dimensional heat conduction law by predicting subsurface temperature, surface heat flow, and rock thermal conductivity. Many physical quantities, including bottomhole temperature, depth, geographic coordinates, elevation, sediment thickness, magnetic anomaly, gravity anomaly, gamma-ray flux of radioactive elements, seismicity, and electric conductivity were used as model inputs. Surface heat flow, temperature, and thermal conductivity predictions were constructed for depths of 0-7 km at an interval of 1 km with spatial resolution of 18 km2 per grid cell. The model showed superior temperature, surface heat flow and thermal conductivity mean absolute errors of 4.8C, 8.1 mW/m2 and 0.07 W/(C-m), respectively..

This submission encompasses the airborne magnetic and radiometric survey data from the northwestern Great Basin in Nevada and California, collected under the GeoDAWN initiative: Geoscience Data Acquisition for Western Nevada. Included in the dataset are all flight details, geophysical data, and metadata gathered during the surveys.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the Department of Energy (DOE) have collaborated to acquire high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric data, over northern and western Nevada and eastern California, to support geologic and geophysical mapping and modeling that will assist geothermal and critical mineral studies. The surveys, referred to as GeoDAWN, span areas of major resource potential associated with the Walker Lane and western Great Basin. They were conducted under the USGS's Earth Mapping Resource Initiative (EarthMRI), with support from the DOE's Geothermal Technologies Office (GTO), and involved acquisition of aeroradiometric and aeromagnetic data that provide key information on surface geology and soil composition, and subsurface structure and geology, respectively.

Utah FORGE 5-2615: Shear Enhanced Permeability In a Granitoid Fracture - Presentation Slides

Provided here is a set of presentation slides detailing stress-dependent permeability in FORGE granitoid fractures and how fracture slip affects permeability. It outlines empirical correlations between permeability, stress, and fracture aperture, emphasizing that mechanically closed fractures retain some permeability. Moreover, the presentation explains that moderate shear slip can increase permeability by enhancing fracture networks, provided the slip displacement does not produce gouge materials that could clog the fractures.

Utah FORGE 3-2417: Simulations for Distributed Acoustic Sensing Strain Signatures as an Indicator of Fracture Connectivity

This dataset encompasses simulations of strain signatures from both hydraulically connected and "near-miss" fractures in enhanced geothermal systems (EGS). The files and results are presented from the perspective of digital acoustic sensing's (DAS) potential to differentiate the two fracture types. This dataset was acquired by the FOGMORE R&D project (Fiber Optic Geophysical MOnitoring of Reservoir Evolution), under Utah FORGE R&D Project 3-2417. Included are simulation and results via MatLab and COMSOL files, as well as a thesis and paper summarizing the results.

Some stimulated fractures may be incomplete, approaching but not intersecting the production well. These "near-miss" fractures can be addressed in future stimulation stages or re-stimulated to complete the connection. We propose the use of fiber optic distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) as a method by which near-miss stimulated fractures may be identified and distinguished from hydraulically connected fractures. The low-frequency sub-nanostrain signatures of both complete and near-miss fractures in DAS data are simulated in this study using a hydrogeomechanical discrete fracture network model. The spatial distribution of strain was found to be an accurate indicator. However, this indicator must be evaluated in the context of DAS gauge length and spatial sampling. These simulations are a precursor to tests conducted at FORGE in 2023.

Utah FORGE 2-2446: Report on Phase Field Modelling of Near-Wellbore Hydraulic Fracture Nucleation and Propagation

This is a report that describes the modelling of fracture nucleation and propagation in the near-wellbore region to understand the relationship between in situ stress and fracture patterns. A novel phase field formulation is described here, which represents fractures as a diffuse variable, eliminating the need for re-meshing or an element insertion algorithm in modelling. Brief numerical results are also provided to demonstrate the capability of this method. Traditional phase field formulations focused only on fracture propagation; however, this formulation models both nucleation and propagation, extending previous work to hydraulic fracturing and implementing it in the GEOS simulation framework.  This work was done as part of Utah FORGE Project 2-2446: "Closing the Loop Between In-situ Stress Complexity and EGS Fracture Complexity."
