Paleozoic near salt dome formations – a new target for EGS in Poland

A new petroleum borehole and seismic data petroleum exploratory well, located close to the axial zone of the Mogilno-Łódź Trough (Polish Lowlands) delivered new insight into the local structural, tectonic, facial and thermal variability of this geological unit. For these purpose 3D model of Permian-Mesozoic strata have been prepared. This allows detailed structural mapping of the salt pillow-related Klecko anticline. Moreover, the resources assessment confined to the Rotliegend Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) type reservoir, divided into the playa, eolian and fluvial facies-based complexes at depths of about 5000 m b.s.l. was performed.
