Аннотация
The Paratunka and Verkhny Paratunsky deposits (Kamchatka, Russia) are examples of worldwide widespread low-temperature nitrogen (LT N2) geothermal systems. The Paratunka geothermal fields are located 15 km apart, composed of the Eocene–Quaternary volcanic rocks, and characterized by shallow permeable reservoirs with deep conductive roots inherited from extinct volcanoes with circulating SO4–Na nitrogen thermal waters of 60‒90°C. The Paratunka reservoir has a 60-year history of intense exploitation (150‒250 kg/s), whereas the Verkhny Paratunsky reservoir is just being commissioned. A 3D numerical thermohydrodynamic model is developed for the Verkhny Paratunsky and Paratunka LT N2 geothermal system (Kiryukhin et al., 2025), which suggests that the top of the pre-Cretaceous basement is permeable, whereas the roots of extinct volcanoes are the channels for thermal fluid upflows and thermal spring discharge. This numerical model also includes a water recharge area from adjacent highlands. The feasibility of exploiting a potential deep reservoir confined to the structural surface of the pre Cretaceous basement top (an area of 270 km2) for heat supply and using the binary technologies for electric power generation is confirmed. According to numerical modeling results, the possible initial power generation is estimated at 32.3 MWe.

Паратунское и Верхне-Паратунское месторождения (Камчатка, Россия) являются примерами низкотемпературных азотных (LT N2) геотермальных систем, которые широко распространены во всем мире. Паратунские геотермальные месторождения находятся на расстоянии 15 км друг от друга, они сложены вулканогенными породами эоцен-четвертичного возраста и характеризуются неглубокими проницаемыми резервуарами с глубинными проводящими корнями от потухших вулканов, где циркулируют азотные термальные воды SO4-Na состава с температурой 60‒90°C. Паратунское резервуар имеет 60-летнюю историю интенсивной эксплуатации (150‒250 кг/с), в то время как Верхне-Паратунский резервуар только вводится в эксплуатацию.
Скорректирована трехмерная численная термогидродинамическая (3D) модель Верхне-Паратунской и Паратунской низкотемпературной азотной геотермальной системы (Kiryukhin et al., 2025), предполагающая, что кровля домелового фундамента представляет собой проницаемую поверхность, а корни потухших вулканов обеспечивают каналы для притока глубинного теплоносителя и разгрузки термальных источников. Эта численная модель включает также область водного питания с прилегающего высокогорья.
Подтверждена возможность эксплуатации потенциального глубинного резервуара, приуроченного к структурной поверхности кровли домелового фундамента (площадь 270 км2) для теплообеспечения и применения бинарных технологий получения электрической энергии. По результатам численного моделирования возможная начальная электрогенерация оценивается 54.7 МВт, с понижением до 31.2 МВт в течение 30 лет эксплуатации.
