Abstract
This paper gives a brief introduction to the geothermal resources of France. These are all of the low temperature (T < 100?C) type, initially identified in the sedimentary basins by petroleum exploration. The geothermal "doublet" reinjection technique is described. More than 40 doublets have been - drilled and are exploited in the Paris Basin. These geothermal developments have taken place only during the past 6 years, and so far no major problems have occurred. Mathematical modelling has been carried out, and computer programs developed
