Abstract
The heat beneath our feet, as a geothermal energy resource, seems to have the potential to provide a portion of the world's energy demands, whether by direct heat offer or power generation. The major research challenge has been to develop a technique to economically and efficiently collect thermal energy from the ground. Drilling new geothermal wells, which cost over half of the plant's total budget, is a major limitation in allocating money. There are millions of abandoned/exploratory hydrocarbon wells, however, that can be used to collect heat from the ground. These existing hydrocarbon wells can be regarded as a viable option since most of them have the capacity to generate enough heat for direct consumption and power generation.
However, we must determine which wells can produce enough heat energy in a safe, flexible, and cost-effective manner
