Abstract
The Svartsengi high temperature area in Iceland is a part of the Reykjanes geothermal system. The paper is an example of how conceptual models for the regional geothermal system, hybrid convection model for the geothermal area itself, reservoir performance and well performance can be linked together to give an estimate of the reservoir capacity.
