geothermal energy

The oilfield service company will supply power plants capable of electrifying 180,000 US homes with geothermal energy.

The fifth edition of the SPE Europe Energy GeoHackathon, beginning on 1 October, focuses on how data science can advance geothermal energy and drive the energy transition.

Traditionally, the drilling industry has relied on high-fidelity thermal simulators to predict downhole temperature for different operational scenarios. Though accurate, these models are too slow for real-time applications. To overcome this limitation, a deep-learning solution is proposed that enables fast, accurate prediction of downhole temperatures under a wide ran…

This paper details efforts in 2024 at the Utah Frontier Observatory for Research in Geothermal Energy field laboratory to explore the feasibility of hydraulically fracturing thermally conductive granite formations to create an enhanced geothermal system.

The emergency permitting rules aim to accelerate geothermal energy development. Ormat Technologies' three Nevada projects will be the first to benefit from the streamlined process, with environmental reviews cut from years to weeks.

Using emergency procedures, the permitting timeline is expected to be significantly reduced, from years to weeks in some cases.

This paper evaluates the effect of rapid cooling on the rock-cutting process and incorporates this effect as a component of drilling-performance optimization.

This paper presents a comprehensive model of geothermal exploitation for depleted deep heavy oil reservoirs through supercritical CO₂ injection.

This study highlights how the recovery and reuse of existing hydrocarbon infrastructure can contribute to the diffusion of district-heating projects that implement the principles of the circular economy.

This paper outlines a technique to evaluate formation temperature shifts when closely spaced wells are produced concurrently and applies the technique to validate the design basis for new development.
