Production and injection data from slim holes and large-diameter wells at four geothermal fields (Oguni, Japan; Sumikawa, Japan; Takigami, Japan; Steamboat Hills, U.S.A.) were analyzed in order to establish relationships (1) between injectivity and productivity indices, (2) between productivity/injectivity index and borehole diameter, and (3) between discharge capacity of slim holes and large-diameter wells. The productivity and injectivity indices for boreholes with liquid feedzones are more or less equal. Except for the Oguni boreholes, the productivity and injectivity indices display no correlation with borehole diameter. Thus, the productivity index (or, more importantly, the injectivity index in the absence of discharge data) from a slim hole with a liquid feed can be used to provide a first estimate of the probable discharge capacity of a large-diameter geothermal production well. The large-diameter wells at the Oguni, Sumikawa and Steamboat Hills geothermal fields have a more or less uniform inside diameter, and the discharge capacity of these wells (with liquid feedzones) can be predicted using Pritchett＇s ＇＇scaled maximum discharge rate＇＇ in conjunction with discharge data from slim holes. Because of the non-uniform internal diameter for large-diameter Takigami wells, it is not possible to use a simple scaling rule to relate the discharge capacities of slim holes and large-diameter wells at Takigami; therefore, a numerical simulator was used to model the available discharge data from Takigami boreholes. The results of numerical modeling indicate that the flow rate of large-diameter Takigami production wells with liquid feedzones can also be predicted using discharge and injection data from slim holes.
