Paper
Well Information Query Tool for Leyte Geothermal Production Field, Philippines
Track: Electric and Gas
Author(s): Rhoel Enrico Olivar

A stand-alone application program incorporating GIS to database management was developed for the Leyte Geothermal Production Field wells database. It links spatial data with tabular well information, allowing the user to query the database through a map interface. The information contained in the corporate Oracle database include basic well data, stratigraphy, permeable zones, and intersected fault structures. For visualization, a three-dimensional model of the geothermal field with the wells and the surface of Bao Volcanic Formation stratigraphic layer was also created and incorporated into the program. Two 3D-model viewers were used; one featured the whole Leyte Island, while the other included only the geothermal field, itself. 3D modeling of the wells was done using the deviation survey data through linear referencing. The program was developed using Visual Basic with MapObjects at the International Institute for Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation (ITC) in the Netherlands.
