Abstract

As of today most of geothermal projects and the related feasibility studies have been realized on the basis of geological, 2D-seismic and hydrogeological data interpretation without considering the petrophysical and geomechanical properties at the micro scale. In this paper we want to point out the primary role of petrophysics in the reservoir analysis for a right identification of the structural lineaments and flow lines, to optimize the thermal efficiency of a geothermal project finalized to decrease the risk and the costs.
