Recent advances in relational database management systems (RDBMS), network computing, web and internet technology and telecommunication are utilized to design an RDBMS to handle geothermal data. This effectively addresses data management problems typical in a mature geothermal operation such as the massive data quantity from remote diffuse databases, non-homogeneous data types and formats, multiple users at various locations, and accessibility and speed. A system is developed which combines thin software clients with powerful web-enabled data and application servers to function in a distributed workgroup computing environment. The system serves as an effective tool for geothermal reservoir and resource management.
