Abstract

Rohr Industries, Inc. in conjunction with the California Energy Commission Science Applications, Inc. (SAI), Alternative Energy, Inc. (AEI), Geothermal Services, Inc (GTS) and Geodrill Company has performed an investigation of the geothermal rescues underlying Rohr's production plant in Chula Vista, CA. The purpose of this project was to perform a preliminary resource assessment in order to reduce the risk of drilling a deep production well at the plant site. A preliminary parametric economic analysis was also performed to assist Rohr in formulating a policy towards developing geothermal resources.
