标题：Mass variation in outcome to high production activity in Kamojang Geothermal Field, Indonesia: A reservoir monitoring with relative and absolute gravimetry
摘要：The Kamojang Geothermal Field (KGF) is a typical vapor dominated hydrothermal system in west Java, Indonesia.This geothermal field is the oldest exploited geothermal field in Indonesia.From 1983 to 2005, more than 160 million tons of steam has been exploited from the KGF and more than 30 million tons of condensed water and river water were injected to the reservoir system.Regarding to the electricity demand, installed capacity of KGF increased from 30 MWe to 140 MWe in 1987 and 200 MWe in 2007.Mass variation in the geothermal reservoir can be measured by using the map of the gravity changes.Gravity changes observed in the KGF between 1999 and 2005 at 51 benchmarks are interpreted in terms of a change of mass.Concerning to the production mass increase, gravity changes also observed between 1999 and 2008 at 30 benchmarks.The recent gravity measurement was conducted using absolute gravimeter in 2009 and 2010 at 12 gravity benchmarks.Mass variation in the reservoir was caused by production and injection activities.Mass variation in KGF from 1999 to 2005 is about −3.34 Mt/year while is about −3.78 Mt/year from 1999 to 2008.Another period between 2009 and 2010, mass variation decreased about −8.24 Mt.According to the history of production and injection, natural recharge to the KGF’s reservoir is estimated at about 2.77 Mt/year from 1999 to 2005 and 2.75 Mt/year from 1999 to 2008.Between 2009 and 2010, KGF has a bigger mass deficiency rate throughout 200 MWe maintain production.
