There are different ways of dealing with gas break-out in single/two-phase type geothermal surface facilities. The first obvious solution is to keep the pressure at the topside facilities above the bubble point pressure of the geothermal brine and thereby completely avoid degassing. However, given that the bubble point pressure might be several tens of bars, it increases the cost of the surface facilities due to the correspondingly higher design pressure of the piping and equipment required. The topside facilities can also be designed to handle gases formed by flashing/exsolution, e.g., selecting pumps that can manage a certain gas fraction, or the gases are separated, compressed, and reinjected along with the cooled geothermal brine. A third solution is to separate and vent the gases. Yet, this increases the carbon footprint due to the venting of CO2 directly and/or from associated methane emissions if methane is present as a dissolved gas. Gases can also be oxidized/flared, converting methane to CO2, which reduces the global warming potential (GWP) of the emissions due to a lower GWP of CO2 compared to methane. Nonetheless, greenhouse gas emissions are still higher compared to non-venting/flaring. Lastly, gases can also be used for energy production by e.g., combustion in a gas engine or similar, provided that the heating value / Wobbe Index is sufficiently high. The exhaust from such combustion also has associated emissions of CO2 and GWP.
