Example of a geothermal triplet with horizontal drains inside the reservoir. The porosity map (simulation here) characterizes the reservoir in each side of the fault. The better knowledge of the reservoir allows to inject cold water in a different structural panel. The third drain allows to inject or to produce hot water, giving the operator both options depending on the season and the needs of the heating and cooling network.
