Abstract

Well Dieng-2, drilled in 1979, has been used as a steam producer for the 2 MWe non condensing turbine since 1981. Recently the well exhibited some rather strange phenomena, where as the wellhead pressures became erratic during a certain interval although the flow rate remained constant. One possible explanation, which will be described in this paper, is the change in permeability at the inflow zones.
