The target of this work is to produce a vision of the geothermal potential stored in the depleted oil & gas fields in Italy, by using the available information provided by the Ministry of Economic Development, the published data on hydrocarbon fields, and the estimated temperature at depth from the Italian National Geothermal Database. Five most promising fields have been selected and the volume method has been applied to assess their geothermal potential. Then a probabilistic approach has been adopted to obtain not a single value but a distribution of values of the technical potential TP. The results indicate that the available heat in hydrocarbons fields is encouraging and it is fundamental to analyze the production capacities of the existing wells to have a clearer idea of the possible uses of this existing and wasted heat.

这项工作的目标是利用经济发展部提供的可用信息，已发布的有关油气田的数据以及估计的温度，来了解意大利贫油油气田中储存的地热潜力。意大利国家地热数据库的深度。选择了五个最有前途的领域，并采用体积法评估了它们的地热潜力。然后，采用了一种概率方法来获取技术潜力TP的值，而不是单个值。结果表明，碳氢化合物领域中的可用热量令人鼓舞，分析现有井的生产能力以更清晰地了解现有热量和浪费热量的可能用途至关重要。
