Study on the Oilfield Produced Water Geothermal Resource Utilization

Abstract:

Oilfield produced water geothermal resource that is very easy overlooked or wasted in the exploitation of oilfield geothermal resources is a special form of sedimentary basin geothermal resource. Based on detailed analysis of oilfield produced water geothermal resource formation mechanism, its concept is firstly proposed. The paper expounds oilfield produces water geothermal resource characteristics from three aspects of resource potential, development cost and market prospect, proposes the idea of using heat and adverse water, discusses the feasibility of development water geothermal resource to service in oil production and circumjacent dweller by using heat pump technology and lays a solid foundation for its in-depth exploitation.
