Together with the existing natural hot spring at Sembawang, these conditions suggest that Singapore has a potential for geothermal energy development. The underlying rock at depth is unknown, but likely to consist of mainly the low permeability rock of the Bukit Timah granite in the east and at the very deep parts, and Jurong sedimentary rock at shallower depths in the western Singapore. Potential geothermal development at the Sembawang resource is likely to utilise the Engineered Geothermal System (EGS) concept because of the low permeability granite. The study aims to assess the Singapore geothermal resource through numerical simulations. The simulator is TOUGH2, which uses an ‘integrated finite difference’ (IFD) or a ‘finite volume’ numerical formulation. Input data for the model are obtained from both literatures and measurements. The simulation is performed with two-dimensional model in consideration of the limited available data at present. The 2D model is calibrated to match the natural state conditions of the observed and expected geothermal features in Singapore. The 2D model is also used to simulate some production scenarios. Thermal conductivities of rock samples from boreholes at the Jurong region and viii from ground surface at several locations in Singapore are measured with the modified Guarded Hot Plate (GHP) method. The measured thermal conductivities from the rock samples are: Jurong sedimentary 1.4 - 3.6 W/mK, granite and gabbro 1.9 - 3.5 W/mk, and mudstone and slate 0.8 - 1.3 W/mK. The 2D model for Singapore geothermal reservoir has been developed as a single porosity model and calibrated to match the natural state conditions. The optimum natural state model has a high temperature upflow towards the Sembawang hot spring with temperature of 125 to 150 ◦ C at depths of 1.2 to 1.8 km, and another towards the Jurong region with temperature of 125 to 150 ◦ C at depths of to km. Simulations of production from an EGS project are carried out with both single and double porosity model. Results from the simulations show that the Singapore geothermal resource can sustain 25 years heat extraction (average water temperature of 150 ◦ C) with production rate of 20 kg/s. Simulation shows that an EGS system with a single layer fracture zone can produce 20 kg/s hot water and 0.67 MW of electricity for 25 years with an average production temperature of 150 ◦ C (temperature decline about 10 ◦ C). If production is simulated for a model with a layer fracture zone, then megawatts electricity can be produced. ix List of Tables 2.1 Granite and other sedimentary rock samples from surface . . . . . .
