Abstract
Reservoir development activities conducted at the Frontier Observatory for Research in Geothermal Energy (FORGE) site in Utah will require detailed earth and numerical models. Modeling and simulation activities will be undertaken by the site operations team using a variety of numerical methods, and also are envisioned to be conducted by the research community. In order to ensure quantitative comparability of simulation results, and consistent initial and boundary conditions, a framework has been developed to provide reference earth and numerical models with version control. This paper will describe the methodology and how the data will be shared and distributed.
