摘要

The orientations of open, partially open, and closed features were interpreted in three acoustic borehole image (ABI) logs recently collected at the Star Peak Geothermal Field. The most prevalent population of features across the logs have moderate to steep westerly dips, with secondary populations of higher angle east and southeast dipping features. These orientations are broadly consistent with structural trends observed along the Rye Patch fault zone. Drilling induced fractures were also identified in the ABI logs, providing a proxy for the maximum stress orientation within the geothermal field. Drilling induced fractures (DIFs) measured at the south end of the geothermal field exhibit a dominant north-northwest trending maximum stress field orientation, while DIFs in the center of the field show a rotation to an east-northeast trend, before returning to a north-trending orientation in the north. These all vary from the regional average stress field orientation, which trends north-northeast. The stress field rotations implicated by the DIFs at Star Peak may be related to a step-over in the Rye Patch Fault Zone near the center of the geothermal field.
