Reservoir Identification of Bac-Man Geothermal Field Based on Gravity Anomaly Analysis and Modeling

The Bac-Man gravity modeling was carried out to describe the geological structures that control the geothermal system and estimate the area of the geothermal reservoir. A total of 125 data points were used to produce a complete Bouguer anomaly map of the area. The gravity data are separated into reg...
