CO2 is the main component of non-condensable gas in high-temperature geothermal fluid and its existence still have important impact on geothermal development. Determining its content in high-temperature geothermal fluid is of great significance for geothermal development. The conventional sampling and testing analysis of CO2 content determination has some drawbacks, such as insufficient sampling representativeness,cumbersome implementation process and high sampling cost. Based on the pressure-temperature measurement in the wellbore during discharge tests and two-phase flow calculation, this paper proposed a new method to determine CO2 content in the geothermal reservoirs. This method only uses a large number of relatively reliable measured data of temperature and pressure, it has low cost, strong practicability and good reliability. This paper first describes the pressure-temperature measurement during discharge tests. Then constructs a model that solves the two-phase flow in the geothermal wellbore, which was verified by comparison with the commercial software WELLSIM, and determine CO2 content by using both the wellbore pressure-temperature measurement and model calculation data. Finally, the method was tested and verified by using the measured data from Gulu geothermal field in Tibet and the Ziledaer geothermal field in Turkey, and the CO2 contents in the geothermal reservoir were determined to be 1.1 % and 3.2 % respectively.
