    • Abandoned petroleum wells as sustainable sources of geothermal energy 

      Templeton, J.D.; Ghoreishi-Madiseh, S.A.; Hassani, F.; Al-Khawaja, M.J. ( Elsevier Ltd , 2014 , Article)
      A reliable heat transfer model was developed to determine the performance of a double pipe heat exchanger retrofitted to an abandoned petroleum well. The proposed model is compared against an analytical heat transfer model ...

    • Geothermal energy extraction from decommissioned petroleum wells 

      Ghoreishi-Madiseh, S.A.; Templeton, J.; Hassani, F.; Al-Khawaja, M. J.; Aflaki, E. ( International Society for Rock Mechanics , 2014 , Conference Paper)
      Abandoned wells impose enduring liabilities to petroleum companies and/or governments. However, the depth and abundance of abandoned petroleum wells make them an economically attractive source of geothermal energy. Geothermal ...

    • A novel technique for extraction of geothermal energy from abandoned oil wells 

      Ghoreishi-Madiseh, S.A.; Hassani, Ferri P.; Al-Khawaja, Mohammed J. (2012 , Conference Paper)
      This paper investigates the possibility of design and construction of a geothermal heat exchanger suitable for installation in abandoned oil wells. Based on the in-situ data collected, an amenable heat transfer numerical ...
