Abstract

"The KS-8 well test is designed to determine the flow characteristics of production well KS-8. Major components for the power plant and the gathering and disposal system including injection well KS-3 will also be tested as part of this program. The well test program described in this document consists of the following elements: * KS-8 well test program procedures, equipment, and instrumentation. * H2S abatement program to be used during the well test. * Chemical sampling program for the analysis of geothermal brine, stearn, and non-condensible gases including toxic elements. * Chemical sampling program for the analysis of aerosols emitted from the stearn rock muffler. * Test program for power plant components using stearn from KS-8 during the flow test. * Program for injecting geothermal brine from the main separator into injection well KS-3. Vertical venting for initial well cleanout will not be used in the KS-8 well test. Instead, the initial water-rich flow from the well will be vented through an atmospheric separator/muffler. H2S will be abated in the stearn fraction throughout the test including the initial cleanout period."
