Published by Ormat Technologies, Inc. | Department of Energy | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 01:01 AM | Dataset Last Updated: May 22, 2023 at 11:17 PM
The utility of passive seismic emission tomography for mapping geothermal permeability has been tested at San Emidio in Nevada. The San Emidio study area overlaps a geothermal field in production since 1987 and another resource to the south of the production field. Passive seismic data collections were completed at San Emidio in late 2016 by Microseismic Inc as part of a DOE project. The PSET results are being analyzed as part of the WHOLESCALE project. This submission includes P-wave velocity model data, and the passive seismic data with more information on each bellow.
