Titolo della tesi: EVALUATION OF THE GEOTHERMAL POTENTIAL IN CENTRAL ITALY

The Peri-Tyrrhenian most promising geological settings and environmentally sustainable geothermal data (wells and seismic lines) are offered in this study as well as a model for evaluating the shallow, medium, and deep geothermal potential of the area. In accordance with the thermal properties of the rocks, the crustal model is separated into strata based on geological, geothermal, and geophysical data. For the study area, which includes Latium and Campania, the geothermal potential has been qualitatively evaluated based on the evaluation of geological interpretation and temperature distribution in the subsurface. Geographic information systems (QGIS & ArcGis) and Petrel and Move, are used to construct the model since they allow for the integration of several opensource thermal, geological, and territorial data sets. The suggested technique enables the mapping and characterization of the most promising reservoirs or exploitable areas by providing geothermal heat-exchange maps at various depths that can be combined with other information in the territorial management for a cross-check. We propose a 3-D model of the lithospheric scale that encompasses the Italian Tyrrhenian range and depicts the regional features of the structural configuration and thermal field. The structural model integrates the principal sedimentary, crustal, and lithospheric mantle units from earlier studies of the Tyrrhenian range and Central Italy System. It also incorporates available geological and geophysical data provided by Eni, the industrial partner of this project. The 3-D thermal configuration is derived using a hybrid methodology that applies 3D structural, gravitational, and thermal modelling. Due to an imposed heterogeneous distribution of thermal characteristics attributed to the various components, the predicted temperature distribution is highly varied. The sedimentary cover's thermal blanketing effect, the variation in the amount of radiogenic heat produced within the various crystalline crust compartments, and the actual topology of the thermal Lithosphere-Asthenosphere Boundary are the main causes of first order variations in the temperature field, as highlighted by the results of this work. This detailed analysis, supported by extensive scientific literature, validates the structural and thermal configurations of the Bolsena, Bracciano, Viterbo, and Campi Flegrei areas, highlighting their significant potential for geothermal energy utilization. The deep temperatures at the Moho discontinuity provide additional evidence of the significant thermal gradient and the potential for geothermal energy utilization in these areas.
