Mutnovsky Geothermal Field Introduction
Mutnovsky area include magmaticsystem of the active Mutnovsky volcano,numerios steam fields and hot springs
Mutnovsky is a fracture type geothermalfield:Main and North-East single-faulttype zones include Dachny and V-Mutnovskyproduction reservoirs (Kiryukhin et al, 1998).
Streamlines of fluids from Mutnovsky volcano recharge area to discharge areas through deeper part of zone, where heat and massmagmatic component exchange took place. Main Production Zone shown as a polygon area.
Steam fields: 1 – Active crater of Mutnovsky volcano, 2 – Bottom Field,3 – North Mutnovsky (W), 4 – Dachny;
Hot springs: 5 – Piratovsky, 6 – Verkhne-Zhirovsky.
Conceptual Hydrogeological Model (Recharge\Discharge Conditions)
Conceptual Hydrogeological Model (Geometry of Production Zone)
“Single fault” nature of the Main Production Zone demonstrated by small deviations of the points of the production () and full circulation loss () from plane equation formula Z = -1.691076246561*Х +0.48880109651512*Y +65583.1 Filled symbols correspond to production wells.
Conceptual Hydrogeological Model (Geometry of Production Zone)
Wells isolated from “Single fault” in Dachny Site show low productivity
Conceptual hydrogeological model of the Dachny site Mutnovsky geothermal field was verified based on
Dachny SiteConceptual Hydrogeological Model
•circulation losses and production zones distribution data,•mapping of active fracture zones, •gas and fluid chemistry data, •secondary minerals distributions,•recent results of drilling,•geothermal analog data
Central part of the Dachny represent a “single fault”type geothermal reservoir. Upflow of the high temperature fluids occur in the south-east partof this zone
Numerical Model Setup
In October 2002 Mutnovsky 50 MWe PP was put into operation in Dachny site. The problem of steam supply shortage (60%) to Mutnovsky 50 MWe PP (Dachny) trigged the new reservoir model study.
Basic Software used: TOUGH2V2.0, A-Mesh, HOLA,additional subroutines implementedto model complexreservoir geometry,Graphics software.
3D Grid Generation
3D numerical grid correspond to the fault type geothermal reservoir of the Main Production Zone (120 m thick) connected with the 5-layers array of the Host Rocks.

wells estimated accordingly to initial exploitation data (rate Q, wellhead pressures WHP) andflowing enthalpies h, reservoir pressure Pr,
bottomhole Pb pressures tables, relative
permeabilities (krs, krw) derived from the
model (TOUGH2 or HOLA).
Model Calibration
Three possible scenarios of additionalrecharge into the Main Production Zoneunder exploitation conditions(including up-flow and reinjection)were tested in the model:
(1) No additional recharge(2) Marginal recharge(3) Downflow recharge
Model Calibration
Best model match (scenario #3, downflow recharge): modeling steam and separate production from wells 016, 26, Е4, 029W, Е5 ( at 5.2 bar i separation pressure) against total production (dots).

Modeling of Exploitation
Analysis of additional exploitation wells drilling in the high temperature upflow zone to maintain sustainable production for 50 MWe Power Plant.
Scenario #1 (no additional recharge): sustainable steam production (96.3 kg/s or 48.2 MWe) during 10-year exploitation period.
Modeling of Exploitation
Scenario #2 (marginal recharge): sustainable steam production (116.7 kg/s or 58.4 MWe) during 10-year exploitation period.
Modeling of Exploitation
Scenario #3 (downflow recharge): sustainable steam production (86.7 kg/s or 43.4 MWe) during 10-year exploitation period.
