Wallace et al., (1979) estimated that over 2,000 exajoules (EJ) of recoverable thermal energy and methane are contained within the Texas Gulf Coast geopressure deposits. Uncertainties about the reservoir mechanics, the connectedness of the geopressure zones, and their capability to produce brine for extended periods of time, are often brought up as a concern. In the final summary documentation of the extensive DOE studies, John et al. (1998) state the brine flow tests completed on the wells at Pleasant Bayou (Brazoria fairway), Gladys McCall (Cameron Parish, LA), and Hulin (Vermillion Parish, LA) proved the geopressure resource along the Gulf Coast to be viable for development (Figure 21). The longest tests were done on the Department of Energy (DOE) Pleasant Bayou well No. 2 in Brazoria County. During the 1989-1990 electrical production demonstration the well was perforated from 14,644 to 14,700 feet from which 10,000 bbls/day of brine were produced at 290°F along with 22 scf/bbl of gas. The total cumulative flow for the well from 1978 to 1992 was 25 million bbls with the average flow rate during the last five years at 18,000 bbls/day with a pressure of 3,000 psi (John et al., 1998). From this demonstration, it was concluded that the well could produce at 20,000 bbls/day for 20 years (Shook, 1992). The research also found that if a substantial portion of the produced water is reinjected into the producing reservoir to maintain reservoir pressure and fluid flow rates, more than 90 % of the gas can be extracted from the formation (Gregory, 1977). This gas extraction is accomplished while electricity is being produced from the extracted geothermal heat. Figure 21.
