Available Wells There are various methods of exploration to determine which wells within a field are the “low- hanging-fruit” for geothermal exploration. The ability to extend the life of a field and use existing wells leads to the review of wells in line for plugging and abandonment. During the last three years, there have been 19,328 wells plugged in Texas (Table 5). For the I-35 study area which includes RRC Districts 1 - 6, there have been 2,684 wells abandoned in 2009 alone. By comparing data within the SMU TX RRC Database, 47% were deeper than 10,000 feet and 54% were greater than 250°F. Therefore, it is estimated that 45 to 55% of the wells abandoned in 2009 were capable of geothermal energy production. If 50% of these wells were converted and had a minimal energy output of at least 250 kW, Eastern Texas could continuously generate 335,500 kW (33.5 MW) of base load power. Using the current availability for geothermal power plants at 94%, then 2,762,641,200 kW/hours of electricity per year could be produced from the wells instead of then being plugged. Table 5.

The best case scenario is where produced water is directly connected to an injection well. This situation allows for a binary turbine to be installed between the two wells with minimal infrastructure 52PDF Image | Texas Geothermal Assessment for the I35 Corridor East
