Abstract
Chemistry and enthalpy data have been used to identify the Upper Mahiao reservoir fluids as the most mineralized high temperature region of the Tongonan field so far drilled. Broad and dilution trends have been del ineated together with directions of preferential steam migration. The response of discharge enthal py and fluid chemistry to changing wellhead pressure is described and its importance in chemical interpretation is stressed. The permeability of structural features is discussed and the possibility of some structural control on hydrology is considered.
