Research Abstract |
It is indicated that the monitoring techniques of a geothermal reservoir by repeat precise gravity measurement applied to the Takigami geothermal power station area in Kyushu, Japan are applicable to some overseas geothermal fields (Kamojang Geothermal Area in Indonesia and Ohaaki Geothermal Area in New Zealand). And it is also shown that the hybrid gravity measurement (combination of absolute and relative gravity measurements) is effective to improve accuracy of gravity change detection. On the otherhand, the result explains that the gravity measurement specification appropriate to each geothermal area should be considered.
