Before it became the world’s largest geothermal power-producing site, The Geysers was known as the “Gates to Hades,” drawing visitors with its healing waters, steam vents, and wild legends.
This following SSA session will be in person in Bellevue, Washington on 19-23 April 2022:
De-risking Deep Geothermal Projects: Geophysical Monitoring and Forecast Modeling Advances
Co-conveners: Federica Lanza, Kristine Pankow, Alexandros Savvaidis, Stefan Wiemer, Antonio Pio Rinaldi, Nori Nakata
We seek contributions from EGS projects and field test sites that focus on geophysical technologies applied to geothermal energy, such as real-time monitoring and characterization of induced seismicity, distributed acoustic sensing, large-N array, active surface seismic, vertical seismic profiling, seismic imaging of faults and fracture zones, laboratory experiments and novel instrumentation. We also welcome submission of abstracts on modeling studies at all scales, seismicity forecasting models, hazard and risk analysis studies as well as presentations dealing with good-practice guidelines and risk assessment procedures that would help in reducing commercial costs and enhancing the safety of future geothermal projects.
Please consider submitting your abstract to our session before the deadline on 12 January 2022, at 5 p.m Pacific.
Detailed information on how to submit an abstract can be found at: https://www.seismosoc.org/meetings/submission-system/
