A careful decision needs a comprehensive and effective way to estimate the subsurface condition and the possible resource contained in the geothermal system. Numerical model and simulation sum up the result of geoscience study and its correlation to the behavior of the subsurface fluid flows. A well-developed numerical simulation could give a thorough analysis of a geothermal system and be utilized as input parameters to apply the resource assessment method. This study applied the numerical simulation to the Ungaran geothermal field using TOUGH2 reservoir simulation software. Several parameters were referring to these simulation results and used as the input parameters to the resource assessment method using Monte Carlo simulation. The result shows that the resource value with the highest confidence is lower than the earlier resource estimation of the Ungaran Geothermal System, which is only based on geoscience study. This study gives a careful analysis to support decision-making, especially in a geothermal green field.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
