| Summary: | The gravity method is a method which its primary parameter depends on the density. The
gravity method is used to seveal cases, for example identifying faults or investigate subsurface
structure in the geothermal area. On the geothermal area, the area where the heat source located
is associated by low density, so that its Bouguer anomaly is low. For the most part of this thesis,
the modelled case of geothermal area contains faults and intrusive rock. The modelling used
here is forward modelling. This model is based on variation of the rock density. There are two
models with the maximum depth equal 2500 metres. Next, two models will be compared. The
assumption applied here is no heat source, yet an intrusion rock exists in the deepest surface.
The modelling system used is five surfaces system with the granite as an intrusion rock, the
reservoir(s) are surrounded by andesite and sandstone, the caprock area consists shales, and the
graben exists. The result of the modelling shows the curve of the distance vs anomaly response. |
