Session 1D: Use of Open Hole Logs for Geothermal Reservoir Characterization

The session will show presentations on the use of open hole logs to identify flow zones, calculate permeability and porosity, identify fractures on image logs, calculate flow rate from Spinner or injection logs and use of logs to create petrophysical models to characterize geothermal reservoirs.
