Abstract
A general menu driven software package has been developed that stores and retrieves geothermal field data and produces a large variety of graphic displays. These include, for example, production plots, cross sections, contour plots, base maps and Horner plots. This has been applied to the Geysers geothermal field which has open file data of rover 200 wells. The data include production histories, directional surveys, lithologies logs, wellhead temperatures and pressures, digitized base maps, stem entry locations, casing diagrams, pressure transient texts, heat flow measurements and noncondensable gas concentrations. Although the database software was developed using data from the Geysers, it can be used for any geothermal reservoir.
