Geothermal Forum: Application of Delay Time Tomography and Q Tomography in Geothermal Study
The Geothermal Master’s Program, Faculty of Mining and Petroleum Engineering, Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), successfully held another session of the Geothermal Forum Series 2023 on Friday, September 1, 2023, from 13.30 to 15.30 (Jakarta Time). The event was conducted in hybrid format, both offline at the Exploration Room, 2nd Floor, Energy Building, ITB, and online via Zoom and YouTube.
This session featured Dr. Sandy Kurniawan Suhardja as the speaker and Fanzly Togap Zisochi Lase as the moderator, discussing the topic “Application of Delay Time Tomography and Q Tomography in Geothermal Study.”
The forum explored the use of Delay Time Tomography as a method for imaging the three-dimensional velocity structure of the subsurface, including P-wave (Vp), S-wave (Vs), and the Vp/Vs ratio. These parameters can help identify the presence of fluid phases or partial melting—key indicators of geothermal activity. The discussion also covered Q Tomography and its application in delineating reservoir systems within geothermal fields.
The Geothermal Forum Series, organized by the ITB Geothermal Master’s Program, continues to serve as an important platform for sharing insights and advancing discussions on geothermal exploration, technology, and innovation.
