enhanced geothermal system

Former CTO of ConocoPhillips, Greg Leveille, makes the case for why more oil and gas professionals should take notice of the new-age geothermal space.

The oil and gas industry-backed geothermal firm plans to drill up to 29 wells in southwestern Utah that will deliver electricity to the state's grid by 2026.

The consortium will leverage the oil and gas industry's 100+ years of experience and technological developments in drilling and subsurface engineering to advance geothermal.

The large US shale producer has officially entered into the renewable energy sector with its largest venture investment yet.

New funding aims to launch up to seven pilots to help expand the deployment of enhanced geothermal systems.

Geothermal energy has the potential to play a significant role in Japan's energy transition.

The Biden administration seeks to cut the cost of enhanced geothermal systems by 90% by 2035.

Using CO2 as the geothermal power fluid to generate electricity from low-temperature abandoned hydrocarbon wells can help reduce well costs and optimize energy production. In this paper, a previously developed coupled well/reservoir model is extended to study the effects of fluid properties on thermal output.

Hitting the next well during fracturing happens all the time. Predictably doing that on a large scale in granite looks a lot harder.

Founded in 2017, Fervo Energy is aiming to leverage multistage hydraulic fracturing technology to create more-efficient geothermal wells that will power the Internet company's data infrastructure by 2022.
