Abstract

Reservoir tipe hot dry rock memiliki permeabilitas yang rendah, sehingga untuk mengeksploitasi panasnya dilakukan dengan membuat rekahan atau disebut juga Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS). Salah satu lapangan EGS adalah Frontier Observatory for Research in Geothermal Energy (FORGE), Utah, Amerika Serikat. Pada lapangan ini terjadi pengembangan dan pengujian teknologi untuk menjaga dan memantau reservoir EGS. Salah satu caranya adalah dilakukannya hydraulic fracturing (HF) dengan menginjeksikan air bertekanan tinggi ke dalam reservoir untuk meningkatkan permeabilitas. Proses ini menimbulkan perubahan massa dari waktu ke waktu. Oleh karena itu, dilakukan pemantauan perubahan kondisi reservoir EGS dengan menggunakan metode microgravity. Pada penelitian ini digunakan data dari Geothermal Data Repository milik Utah Geological Survey. Data yang digunakan sebanyak 20 titik pengukuran di sekitar FORGE Utah. Dari hasil pemodelan distribusi perubahan microgravity pada Maret – April 2019, rentang nilainya adalah -446.5 μGal hingga 678.5 μGal. Daerah dengan nilai microgravity positif tersebar di arah Barat Laut hingga Tenggara. Selanjutnya, dilakukan pemodelan inversi dengan menggunakan Occam untuk memperoleh model perubahan densitas secara 3D. Jenis inversi ini digunakan agar menghasilkan error yang lebih kecil dan model yang lebih halus. Hasil yang diperoleh menyatakan bahwa densitas berbanding lurus dengan anomali microgravity. Perubahan nilai ini diinterpretasikan sebagai adanya proses injeksi pada sumur 58-32 dan fluktuasi groundwater yang kemungkinan disebabkan oleh adanya perubahan cuaca (seasonal variation). Kemudian, dilakukan perhitungan estimasi perubahan massa dengan teori potensial Gauss yang menghasilkan nilai sebesar -402.304 Mton. Defisit massa ini disebabkan adanya pengaruh drilling hingga surface discharge.

The hot dry rock (HDR) reservoir type has low permeability; thus, to exploit its heat, fractures are created through a process known as Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS). One of the EGS fields is the Frontier Observatory for Research in Geothermal Energy (FORGE) in Utah, USA. This field is used for the development and testing of technology to maintain and monitor EGS reservoirs. One method employed is hydraulic fracturing (HF), where high-pressure water is injected into the reservoir to enhance permeability. This process results in changes in mass over time. Therefore, monitoring the changes in the EGS reservoir conditions is conducted using the microgravity method. This study utilized data from the Geothermal Data Repository of the Utah Geological Survey. Data from 20 measurement points around FORGE Utah were used. The results from modeling the distribution of microgravity changes in March - April 2019 showed a range of -446.5 μGal to 678.5 μGal. Areas with positive microgravity values were distributed from the Northwest to the Southeast. Furthermore, inversion modeling was performed using Occam to obtain a 3D model of density changes. This type of inversion was used to produce smaller errors and smoother models. The results indicated that density is directly proportional to microgravity anomalies. These changes were interpreted as the injection process in well 58-32 and groundwater fluctuations likely caused by seasonal variation. Subsequently, mass change estimation was calculated using Gauss's potential theory, resulting in a value of -402.304 Mton. This mass deficit is attributed to the impact of drilling and surface discharge.
