Geothermal Feasibility Study near Ede (The Netherlands): Application of Seismic/Gravity Interpretation, Log Upgrading and Diffraction Imaging

As part of the application for a geothermal exploration permit in the Ede region (The Netherlands) a geological assessment study was conducted. The geothermal heat shall be used to feed the existing heat network. Major challenges were the interpretation of sparse vintage 2D seismic data in the region and finding a suitable drilling site in an urbanized environment outside the nearby Hoge Veluwe nature reserve. Data used included well data from two wells, gravity and a collection of 2D seismic lines. The workflow involves complete well velocity and density log upgrading, followed by seismic rep... Mehr ...
