Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAssessment of Geothermal Energy Potential of Ruwan Zafi, Adamawa State and Environs, Northeastern Nigeria, using High Resolution Airborne Magnetic DataIbe Stephen Onyejiuwaka, Uche Kelvin IdumaThe aeromagnetic dataset over Ruwan Zafi, Adamawa State and environs, Northeastern Nigeria, was interpreted in this study, in order to map out places with the potentials for application of geothermal energy for electricity generation and geothermal direct heating. The analysis of the spectral of the magnetic dataset delineated the range of the sediment thickness as 4273.58 and 8693.32 m and … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 4 Dec 2020 · 12,352 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStatistical Analysis of Geothermal Data of an Oil Field, in Parts of Niger Delta, NigeriaEmujakporue Godwin Omokenu, Leonard I. NwosuGeothermal gradient and heat flow were computed from bottom hole temperatures in an oil field in Niger Delta, Nigeria. The statistical analysis of computed geothermal data was carried out. The computed geothermal gradient vary from 17.3±0.14 to 24.33±0.70°C/Km with an average of 22.24±0.57°C/km. The heat flow ranges from 38.06±0.31 to 56.39±2.41 mWm-2 with an average of 50.15±1.25 mWm-2. The computed … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 26 Sep 2016 · 7,963 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeochemistry of Siloam and Tshipise Geothermal Springs, Limpopo Province, South AfricaOlatunde Samod Durowoju, John Ogony Odiyo, Georges-Ivo Ekosse EkosseGeothermal springs are natural geological phenomena that occur throughout the world, and South Africa (SA) is endowed with several springs of this nature. Most of the geothermal springs in SA (31%) are found in Limpopo Province. Assessment of geochemistry of Siloam and Tshipise geothermal springs were undertaken during 2014 winter (May – July) and summer (October – December) seasons. Water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 30 Mar 2018 · 8,533 accessesView PDF Cite
