Abstract
It was shown previously that the application of geothermal feedwater heating in an otherwise conventional steam power cycle greatly improves the utilization of the geothermal resource. Here, a study of the benefits of applying fossil-fuel superheating in the case of flash or vapor-dominated systems is presented. It is suggested that the combination of a flash system and a conventional superheater may prove to be attractive in the case of geopressured reservoirs producing some methane. (MHR)
