Light Hydrocarbon Geochemistry of Oils in the Alpine Foreland Basin: Impact of Geothermal Fluids on the Petroleum System

Figure 8

Simplified cross section of the oil field and location of U1–U4 samples. Well U is used for reinjection of thermal water produced from Malmian (Upper Jurassic) horizon by a well located 3 km west of the section. Well UU is used as reinjector for reservoir brines coproduced with oil. Init. OWC: initial oil-water-contact at the beginning of oil production. Sec. OWC: secondary oil-water-contact estimated after 40 years of production. TVDSS: true vertical depth subsea.
