Conservation measures and extensive research on new sources of energy has eased the demand on fossil fuels, especially crude oil. Geothermal energy as an alternative; source had its share in this development and electricity producing capacity increased from 700 to 4700 MWe during 1970 to 1985. Geothermal reservoir eng...
