Abstract
Steam samples from seven geothermal wells in Northwest Geysers have been analyzed for oxygen -18 and deuterium. Six wells are in a previously undeveloped area northwest of current production at the Geysers vapor dominated geothermal field, California (hereafter referred to as the Northwest Geysers). One well is adjacent to current steam production.
