Fracture geometries and processes in andesites at Mt Ruapehu, New Zealand: implications for the fracture modelling of the Rotokawa Geothermal Field
(Le Consortium Gocad, 2014-09-16)
Fluid flow in the high-temperature (300 C), andesite-hosted Rotokawa geothermal reservoir (Taupo Volcanic Zone (TVZ), New Zealand) is largely controlled by fractures and faults but their geometries are still poorly ...
Fracture width and spacing distributions from borehole televiewer logs and cores in the Rotokawa Geothermal Field, New Zealand
(International Geothermal Association, 2015-04-19)
The successful targeting of permeable fractures in geothermal fields is aided by understanding the spatial and geometric characteristics of fracture populations. Studies of numerous outcrop, and a limited number of geothermal ...
The nature of fracture permeability in the basement greywacke at Kawerau Geothermal Field, New Zealand
(Stanford University, 2012-01-30)
The Mesozoic basement at Kawerau Geothermal Field comprises well indurated, inter-bedded sandstones and argillites with a complex structural history. These rocks have very low matrix porosity but nonetheless host both ...
Feasibility of storing carbon dioxide on a tectonically active margin: New Zealand
(American Association of Petroleum Geologists, 2015-09-13)
New Zealand's sedimentary basins was found to have available several gigatonnes of CO2 storage capacity. However, CO2 storage is currently untested in New Zealand. The country's position on an active Neogene plate boundary ...
