Abstract The most important results from a tracer test are whether or not tracer is detected at each observation well and the travel times to the wells that respond. A method developed by the authors for accurately calculating travel times for tracer movement in general flow fields enables the locations of major fractures in a reservoir to be deduced from the travel-time data. The procedure is applied here to data from Wairakei, New Zealand, and Palinpinon, Philippines.
