Abstract
This paper introduces the current state of art in computer modelling of enhanced geothermal system (EGS) and expends our research efforts in high performance simulation of EGS. We include a brief introduction of our integrated geothermal reservoir simulator PANDAS and its applications in: (a) model benchmark, (b) fracture and permeability evaluation based on recorded microseismic events and (c) simulation and evaluation of a certain multiple well EGS. We demonstrate the usefulness and efficiency of our software PANDAS.
