This is a presentation on A Multi-Component Approach to Characterizing In-Situ Stress at the Utah FORGE Site: Laboratory Modelling and Field Measurements project by The University of Pittsburgh, presented by Andrew Bunger. The project characterizes the stress in the Utah FORGE EGS reservoir using three methods: Method 1: Demonstrate complimentary laboratory rock-core stress estimation combined with Machine Learning approach for measuring in-situ stress from field sonic log data; Method 2: Complete field based in-situ measurement (mini-frac); and Method 3: Develop a mechanics-based method for connection near wellbore stress measurements to stresses away from the well-bore. This presentation was featured in the Utah FORGE R&D Annual Workshop on August 14, 2024.

The project's objective was to characterize stress in the Utah FORGE EGS reservoir using three methods: a laboratory rock-core stress estimation combined with a Machine Learning approach for estimation of in-situ stress from field sonic-log data, a field based in-situ measurement (min-frac) approach, and a modeling approach. This presentation was featured at the Utah FORGE R&D Annual Workshop on September 8, 2025. The workshop offered a valuable opportunity to review the progress of Research and Development projects funded under Solicitation 2020-1, which aim to improve our understanding of the key factors influencing Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) reservoir and resource development.

These two reports from the University of Pittsburgh document related efforts under Utah FORGE Project 2-2439v2 to estimate in-situ stresses in well 16B(78)-32 using laboratory data, machine learning models, and physics-based simulations. One report focuses on developing and validating stress prediction models using ultrasonic velocity experiments on core samples and applying those models to sonic log data. The other report uses those near-field predictions as input to a thermo-poro-mechanical model to estimate far-field stress profiles under various thermal and pore pressure conditions.

This spreadsheet consist of data and graphs from deep well 58-32 stress testing from 6900 - 7500 ft depth. Measured stress data were used to correct logging predictions of in situ stress. Stress plots shows pore pressure (measured during the injection testing), the total vertical in situ stress (determined from the density logging) and the total maximum and minimum horizontal stresses. The horizontal stresses were determined from the DSI (Dipole Sonic Imager) and corrected to match the direct measurements.
