Kizildere, which is the only high temperature geothermal field utilized for electricity geteration in Turkey, has six years of production history. High carbon dioxide content and relatively low pressure and temperature of the reservoir, calcite scaling became a major problem in wells, in surface facilities and in the reservoir. During the period of October 1987 1989, an extensive testing and monitoring program was completed in the field according to a bilateral agreement between Turkish and Italian governments. This paper will present an upto-date production data and reevaluation of reservoir behavior discussed before (Okandan 1988).
