UPGEO « UPscaling and heat simulations for improving the efficiency of deep GEOthermal energy » is a Collaborative Research Programme (CRP), funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR). UPGEO brings together 8 partners : 1/ Géosciences Paris Sud (GEOPS), Université Paris-Saclay/CNRS, Orsay, 2/ Laboratoire de Mathématique d’Orsay (LMO), Université Paris-Saclay/CNRS, Orsay, 3/ Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l’Environnement (LSCE), Université Paris-Saclay/CNRS/CEA, Gif-sur-Yvette, 4/ Institut Camille Jordan (ICJ), Université Lyon/CNRS, Lyon, 5/ Géoressources et Environnement (G&E), Université Bordeaux/Institut Polytechnique de Bordeaux, Bordeaux, 6/ BRGM, Orléans, 7/ IFPEN, Rueil-Malmaison and 8/ GEOFLUID, Roissy.
The main objectives of UPGEO are :
- to optimize the use of geothermal reservoirs
- to successfully perform the upscaling between punctual laboratory analyses and their representation at the reservoir and basin scales
- to propose new equations for the upscaling (THM equations which include the quasi-static Biot equations) for flow simulation in non-fractured sands/sandstones and fractured carbonate reservoirs
- to better predict the geothermal reservoir stratigraphic architecture and pore development at different scale
- to build 3D reservoir analogue models from outcrops (drone acquisition, 3D photogrammetry and geomodelling)
- to develop predictive models for flow simulation in carbonate and clastic geothermal sedimentary system
- to propose an application of the new method to a specific installation to estimate the geological risk for deep geothermal exploration in the Paris Basin, and thus assist in decision-making for a municipality or agglomeration that wants to build a geothermal doublet
- to develop new uses for sedimentary basins in a context of energy transition (geothermal energy, energy storage).
- to provide innovative workflow for simulation applicable to other sedimentary basins
