Abstract
This study outlines the importance of unitization on the geothermal resource development. Synthetic examples are used to quantitatively show the benefits of unitization. Lumped parameter models are used for modeling reservoir performance. The results of the lumped parameter modeling approach are discussed for better understanding the reservoir performance in terms of pressure and temperature and to demonstrate the interference effects when more than one lease owners tap the same reservoir. The results help to appreciate the problems of having multiple lease owners in the same area.
