Final Scientific and Technical Report DOE Award No: DE-FG36-08G018000 Recipient: Chena Hot Springs Resort Project Title: Electric Power Generation Using Geothermal Fluid Coproduced From Oil and/or Gas Wells Project Director: Bemie Karl Executive Summary The award was made to provide a demonstrable outcome regarding the technical and commercial viability o f producing power from low temperature (Approx. 20(TF) geothermally heated water, associated with oil and gas production. The initial collaborators were Chena Hot Springs Resort (CHSR), Pratt and Whitney Power Systems (PWPS), United Technologies Research Center (UTRC), and Quantum Resources Management (QRM). The intention was to design and build a portable, modular UTRC Organic Rankin Cycle (ORC) power plant which could be made operational by connecting to an out-flow flange located within QRM’s Jay, Florida oil field. The cooling side ofthe ORC process was to be provided by modular evaporators, to which a portion of the hot water stream flowing from the oil wells would be diverted. The technical viability o f the process required the linkage o f an oil separator, a UTRC power plant and evaporators all mounted on portable, wheeled, highway transportable truck trailers. The economic viability o f the effort required a demonstrated levelized cost per Kw/hr., which compared favorably with other available sources of electricity; including power purchased from an existing grid. The project encountered significant challenges; specifically: • QRM shutting-in the Jay, Florida oil field before project completion; and • U.T.R.C and its affiliate PWPS abandoning the project. (It should be noted that abandonment occurred in conjunction with parent company, United Technologies Corporation, selling UTC Power; which was the UTC subsidiary responsible for manufacturing and marketing the UTC power plant system.) Despite these challenges, Chena Hot Springs Resort and its subsidiary, Chena Power, LLC, have completed the project. In order to do so, major adjustments to the project plan were required, specifically: • The prototype unit was moved to a new site, near New Castle, Utah; and • While data were compiled from the UTC power plant, those data were then extrapolated to a 500 Kw/hr. Kaishan Group, synchronous direct drive, screw expander ORC generating system. The New Castle, Utah site provided a single non-producing oil well. Water temperature at the inlet to the power unit averaged 218?F, pressured at 48 PSI. Outlet temperature averaged 185°F. The cooling side o f the binary cycle averaged 49>F at the inlet and 63°F at the end o f the cycle.PDF Image | Chena Hot Springs
