Community Geothermal: Soil Conductivity, Borehole Design, Energy Models, and Load Data for a Residential System Development - Hinesburg, VT

This dataset contains materials from the Coalition for Community-Supported Affordable Geothermal Energy Systems (C2SAGES) project, which evaluated the techno-economic feasibility of a community geothermal system for a residential development in Hinesburg, VT. The dataset includes detailed soil conductivity test reports, energy models, borehole design reports, hourly energy loads for heating, cooling, and hot water, and design layouts. EnergyPlus was used to model building energy loads, and Modelica software was applied for geothermal loop sizing based on these loads and soil conductivity results. Python scripts for network design further refined the models.

Key files include PDF reports on borehole design (with projections for 1-year, 15-year, and 30-year systems), soil conductivity test results, EnergyPlus modeling outputs, and 2D/3D design drawings in PDF, DWG, and DXF formats. Python notebooks for network design and OnePipe model files are also provided, with Modelica required for viewing certain files. Outputs and modeling data are in various formats including CSV, JPG, HTML, and IDF, with units and data clearly labeled to support understanding of system design and performance for the proposed geothermal solution.

Utah FORGE: 2024 Discrete Fracture Network Model Data

The Utah FORGE 2024 Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) Model dataset provides a set of files representing discrete fracture network modeling for the FORGE site near Milford, Utah. The dataset includes four distinct DFN model file sets, each corresponding to different time frames and modeling approaches in 2024. These models characterize both natural and induced fractures in the geothermal reservoir, which consists of crystalline granitic and metamorphic rock approximately 8,000 feet below the ground surface.

The dataset includes a reference DFN model from February 2024 that incorporates planar fractures and well trajectories, as well as upscaled permeability, porosity, compressibility, and storage values on specified grids. Additionally, there are models based on new microseismic (MEQ) data from May and July 2024, including fracture planes fitted to the latest MEQ catalog datasets, tensile fractures from hydraulic stimulation, and an alternative connected DFN for modeling purposes. Coordinate data is provided in both global and local frames, with detailed instructions on the transformations used to align with principal stress orientations. The dataset also includes notes and calculation files for estimating fracture sizes and differences between various fracture sets.

There are subfolders for Global Coordinates and Local Coordinates. To move from the global to the local coordinate frame, fractures and wells were a) rotated 20 degrees counterclockwise looking down about the global point (335376.400482041, 4263189.99998761, 250.093546450195) to better align with the principal stresses; and b) translated by (-335408.68, -4263010.9, 1150). Upscaled permeability values using the _XYZ suffix show directions with respect to the global XYZ coordinate frame, while those using the _IJK suffix are aligned with local coordinate frame.

Utah FORGE 3-2535: Report on Borehole EM Data Collection and Imaging with the VEMP Field System

This report outlines electromagnetic field measurements that were made after stimulation at Utah FORGE in May of 2024. The measurements involved lowering an electrode to ~3500' in well 16A to energize the steel casing as part of the electric source, with the return electrode located on the surface approximately 1km to the west. Three component magnetic field measurements were made with the VEMP tool in well 78-32B starting at just below the casing shoe in the open hole and moving upward at 100m increments. Due to noise in the system and other problems, only vertical field measurements were completed over the whole interval.

Utah FORGE 2-2439v2: Report on Predicting Far-Field Stresses Using Finite Element Modeling and Near-Wellbore Machine Learning for Well 16A(78)-32

This report presents the far-field stress predictions at two locations along the vertical section of Utah FORGE Well 16A (78)-32 using a physics-based thermo-poro-mechanical model. Three principal stresses in far-field were obtained by solving an inverse problem based on the near-wellbore stress estimates generated by the Machine Learning (ML) predictive model presented in a previous report, which is linked below as "Machine Learning for Well 16A(78)-32 Stress Predictions". Combined ML and physics-based Finite Element model was applied to translate the near-field stresses to stresses away from the wellbore/cooling-influenced zone. The thermo-poro-mechanical effect by pre-cooling circulation prior to well logging in an enhanced geothermal system (EGS) well was accounted for in the stress predictions at Well 16A (78)-32.
