In the study, we analyzed hot dry rock geothermal field of Guide Basin in Qinghai Province, China. We used T2Well software—a coupled wellbore–reservoir simulator—to build a “wellbore–reservoir” model with “three-spot” well pattern (one injection and two production wells). simulated several fixed flow rate cases which water or CO 2 is injected. The objectives our present work are (1) to investigate fluid thermal processes circulating at bottoms, wellbores, wellheads; (2) identify changing...
