CHENA POWER “There’s more opportunity now than there ever has been in the history of man, but it’s in reinventing ourselves” ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! — Bernie Karl The Mobile Geothermal Power Plant Producing oil and gas wells are an underutilized source of geothermal energy. Most wells produce 95% water and 5% oil and gas. One of the significant economic barriers to developing geothermal power is the cost of drilling wells that have predictable access to fluid temperatures high enough to generate electricity. Chena Power has previously demonstrated the feasibility of developing low temperature geothermal resources for energy production. At Chena Hot Springs Resort, three organic rankine cycle (ORC) units are installed that have a gross capacity of producing 680 kW of electricity. The electricity produced at Chena Hot Springs Resort represents the lowest temperature geothermal resource (165°F) developed for electricity production in the world. The power plant is designed to be non-site specific and mobile so that electricity can be produced in one location and be operational for the majority of the oil wells in the world without the need for permits associated with building and ground work. The dimensions of the ORC are designed for easy movement through all 50 states. Oil and gas resources are also only extracted when they can be developed economically. When a well is no longer producing economically, this mobile geothermal power plant can be relocated to another well. This non-site-specific power plant is capable of providing its own cooling and is able to extract cooling water from the hot water coming from the well. The power plant requires minimal on site work and can be installed in one hour from the time it is dropped off. At Quantum’s Jay Florida Field, the estimated daily production capacity is 4,500 barrels of crude per day plus 5-7 million cubic feet of natural gas. Furthermore, in addition to the above mentioned hydrocarbons, 120,000 barrels per day of approximately 200 °F water is extracted and re- injected into the field. The temperatures we will be working with in the field are approximately 185-195°F. Overall, hot water represents approximately 95% of the fluid stream that returns to the central processing facility. This hot water represents an untapped energy resource. In the initial demonstration system, it is estimated that a range of 100kW to 280 kW of electric power will be generated by the ORC Photo Courtesy Gary Schultz power plant depending on ambient conditions. The net power generated will be used to offset part of the electric load at the oil field. While this initial demonstration unit will generate up to 280 kW, it is estimated that the total generation capacity available on the inflow stream is well in excess of 5MW. The water will be separated from the production fluid and the fluid will then be fed into a 25 gpm oil/water separator. The 20 gallons of water separated out will be added to replenish the water lost from the evaporative cooling, and the oil will be pumped back into the pipeline at 5 gpm.
