The Energy and Geoscience Institute (EGI) at the University of Utah would develop and demonstrate a new class of tracers for use in characterizing fracture networks in Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) reservoirs. Laboratory work will take place at the EGI Geothermal Group Laboratory and the Department of Chemistry at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, UT. Field tests would be conducted at an as yet undetermined EGS injection well.
