Geothermal Energy Extraction Process
Uncover the intricate mechanics of the Geothermal Energy Extraction Process. Explore every critical stage of geothermal power generation, from deep-well drilling and heat harvesting to steam conversion and sustainable energy delivery. Master the workflow of harnessing Earth's natural thermal reservoirs for clean, renewable electricity.
Start
Start of the Workflow/Process.
1. Retrieve Site Geological Data
Fetch existing geological survey data and temperature readings from the Site Analysis data model.
2. Calculate Thermal Potential
Calculate the estimated energy output using retrieved temperature and pressure data.
3. Create Feasibility Report Entry
Create a new record in the Feasibility Studies data model with the calculated thermal potential.
4. Assign Drilling Permit Review
Create a task for the Legal Department to review environmental and drilling permits.
5. Check Permit Status
Retrieve the status of regulatory permits from the Regulatory Compliance data model.
6. Update Site Readiness Status
Update the Site Readiness data model to 'Ready for Drilling' once permits are confirmed.
7. Execute Borehole Drilling
Create a task for the Engineering Team to initiate the drilling operations.
8. Log Drilling Parameters
Create new entries in the Drilling Log data model for depth, pressure, and temperature encountered.
9. Aggregate Drilling Pressure Data
Calculate the maximum pressure encountered during the drilling phase from the Drilling Log entries.
10. Assess Pressure Risk
Compare the maximum pressure against safety thresholds to determine if reinforcement is needed.
11. Well Casing Installation
Create a task for the Field Technicians to install well casing based on the pressure assessment.
12. Update Well Integrity Record
Update the Well Infrastructure data model with the installation timestamp and casing specifications.
13. Retrieve Flow Rate Data
Fetch fluid flow rate data from the Production Monitoring data model.
14. Calculate Average Flow Rate
Calculate the average flow rate over the last 24 hours to ensure steady-state production.
15. Notify Production Manager
Send an email notification to the Production Manager regarding the daily flow rate stability.
16. Equipment Maintenance Check
Create a periodic maintenance task for the heat exchanger and turbine components.
17. Update Maintenance Log
Update the Maintenance Schedule data model to reflect the completion of the check.
18. Generate Monthly Production Report
Create a comprehensive performance report summarizing energy output, flow rates, and downtime.
19. Alert Emergency Response
Send an SMS alert to the Emergency Response Team if pressure thresholds exceed safety limits.
20. Clear Temporary Sensor Logs
Delete temporary, high-frequency sensor data entries once they have been aggregated into long-term storage.
