  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Guidelines to the Preparation of Environmental Reports for Geothermal Development Projects Author: Energy Research and Development Administration, Division of Geothermal Energy Year: 1977 The US Energy Research and Development Administration (ERDA) through its Division of Geothermal Energy (DGE) is the federal agency responsible for certain actions that pertain to the development of geothermal resources. Such resources include (1) all products of geothermal processes, embracing indigenous steam, geopressured fluids, hot water, and brines; (2) steam and other gases, hot water and hot brines resulting from water, and natural gas or other fluids introduced into geothermal formations; (3) any by-products derived from geothermal resources, such as minerals or gases. By-products must either have a value less than 75% of the value of the geothermal resources from which they are derived or must not be of sufficient value alone to warrant extraction and production. in order to encourage the development of geothermal resources, ERDA conducts a program to assess those resources and to establish the technical, economic, and environmental acceptability of geothermal technologies. This program includes some proposed actions that could affect the environment. As a means of obtaining information essential to satisfying the requirements of NEAP and its own regulations (10 CFR Part 711), ERDA requests that certain participants in the agency's programmatic activities submit an environmental report. The report describes the proposed programmatic activities and considers the potential impacts of those activities with respect to the existing environment.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The 1985 Oil Production of 21 Oil Producing Non-OPEC Countries Author: Warner, A. J. Year: 1979 The purpose of this report is to forecast the 1985 production possibilities of 21 non-OPEC marginal oil producing, developing and less-developed countries (LDC), in Latin America, Africa and the Far East (including Asia), and the potential net benefit of such production to the world market. The net benefit is the quantity of oil that may be produced in excess of indigenous demand. The forecast is based on an analysis of drilling results in geological basins, and pertinent historical production and consumption trends. The extent to which production is expected to increase hinges on the status of existing fields and the quality of recent discoveries. The normal lag-time between pre-concession or pre-drilling exploration, exploration drilling, development drilling, and the installment of production facilities with ancillary transportation and marketing infrastructure, preclude any oil discovery not now undergoing development from being an important supply source in 1985. In the event national political, social and economic policies rationalize a less than maximum effort to increase production, this forecast becomes moot. The forecasts of others concerned with the future prospects of many of the same countries that are the subject of this analysis, are included for comparison Title: The 1985 Oil Production of 21 Oil Producing Non-OPEC Countries Author: Warner, A.

Year: 1978 The study showed that the Geothermal Loan Guaranty Program has had only a negligible effect on geothermal development and the response to the program was far less than expected. The streamlining of environmental regulations and leasing policies, and the granting of intangible drilling cost write-offs and depletion allowances to operators would have had a greater impact on geothermal energy development. The loan guaranty program did not promote the undertaking of any new projects that would not have been undertaken without it. The program only accelerated the pace for some development which might have commenced in the future.
