Geothermal map - Expected temperatures at a depth of 500 m

The underground geothermal conditions can be presented, irrespective of the aquifers' position, with the appropriate geothermal maps. This map represents the expected temperatures at a depth of 500 m and is made with data from 354 boreholes. It is made on the basis of measured temperatures in accessible boreholes throughout the country. However, since the temperature field depends on the geological structure in the depths and tectonic characteristics, the course of the isotherms is a result of many influences, such as thermal conductivity of rocks, permeability and fracturing of rocks, all of which are reflected in the measured temperatures in boreholes. The distribution of boreholes, which were useful for the measurement of temperature, is very uneven and different as regard the depths. Following the expected temperatures at a depth of 500 m a stronger positive anomaly is in the northeastern part of Slovenia, especially between Maribor and Murska Sobota and at Lendava, and in a smaller eastern part of the Krka basin. In the northeastern part of the country the anomaly is the result of the thinning of the Earth's crust and greater conductive heat flow from the Earth's mantle.

Purpose
The purpose of the maps is to improve insight in the geothermal conditions in the depths. With the latest geothermal maps better insight into the geothermal field of Slovenia has been obtained, especially at greater depths. The research results are potentially useful in planning future more detailed studies for the exploitation of geothermal energy. Ultimately, this means determining the micro locations for drilling deep exploration boreholes and exploitation boreholes or wells.
