The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to the University of Oklahoma (OU) to perform a feasibility study on the reutilization of existing oil and gas wells for geothermal energy from produced liquids, primarily the water phase due to its higher heat capacity. The proposed project would involve both laboratory work and a field pilot plant to be installed at Blue Cedar Energy facilities in Grady County, OK.
