Abstract
Temperature and pressure profiles measured while injecting cold water into geothermal wells have long been used to identify fluid loss, or entry points and to evaluate gross well permeability. Under favourable conditions it is possible to use this data to calculate productivity or injectivity and reservoir pressure at individual feed points. It may also be possible to calculate flow rates in wells which sustain an interzonal downflow when shut in at the wellhead.
