Series and parallel circuits of an organic Rankine cycle (ORC), an oil gathering and transportation heat tracing (OGTHT) and oil recovery were put forward and then they were compared by first and second law analyses. In addition, a case study is conducted based on the data from a series circuit geothermal system in an oilfleld. The objective is to illustrate the applicability of the series and parallel circuit systems. Results indicate that R601a shows the highest cycle performance. The series circuit is preferable for high geothermal water inlet temperatures and low heat source inlet temperatures for the OGTHT, which is just the reverse for the parallel circuit. Moreover, for each working condition, there exists a specific critical mass flow ratio, making the net power output of the parallel circuit equal to that of the series circuit.
