Hot dry rock (HDR) is considered a new clean and renewable energy source. China is rich in HDR resources, but viable and reliable resource evaluation techniques and exploration methods have not been available yet. This research method, consisting of deep exploration combined with shallow drilling, screens the geothermal anomaly regions using heavy magnetic, electric measurement, seismic and thermal joint interpretation technology, and verifies the geophysical multiplicity with massive oilfield drilling data to locate the favorable HDR target region. The research results show a regionally geothermal abnormal area. We use relative impedance combined with seismic profile to recognize the HDR target region. The geophysical exploration and geological joint interpretation technology are faster and more accurate than the single geophysical exploration technology. The comprehensive analysis believes that the high resistance granite body in the southern Paleo-central uplift zone, with its area 500 km2, its thickness 150–330 m, its static formation temperature reaching 152° in the depth of 3360 m, its high rock thermal conductivity, its good deep fracture, and base fracture development, is a fragmented granite and weathered shell, easy for artificial reservoir re-constructing. There is high preciseness in locating the favorable target region for HDR development. more...
