Abstract

Deep oil and hydraulic drillings that have reached the Albian aquifer also called the Intercalary Continental aquifer testify that this is an important reserve of thermal water that constitutes the main geothermal resource in southern Algeria. The main purpose of this study is to define the structural characteristics of the Albian reservoir of southern Algeria such as localisation and structure, depth, thickness, and piezometric level. For this purpose, we have realized characterization maps using data from petroleum drillings of Sonatrach (National Society for the Research, Production, Transportation, Processing and Marketing of Hydrocarbons) and hydraulic boreholes of ANRH (National Agency for Water Resources) of Algeria.
