About This Course

This training covers geomechanics for geothermal projects. It works through stress characterisation at high temperature, thermal stress and cooling effects, wellbore stability in geothermal wells, fracture conductivity and stress, hydraulic stimulation of geothermal reservoirs, induced seismicity and its management, reservoir deformation and subsidence, well integrity under thermal cycling and the geomechanical design of geothermal operations.
