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.

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.

The companies have announced they will work together to integrate geothermal well engineering and project delivery globally.

Closed-loop geothermal systems have entered the new-energy arena to generate electricity using the underground as a heat exchanger.

The companies said they plan to work together on developing geopressured geothermal systems for low-carbon energy storage and geothermal power generation.

The agreement aims to accelerate new commercial technologies that address challenges with geothermal development.

This selection of cutting-edge articles spotlights how experimental concepts are now driving cost-saving strategies in unconventional development. It’s a reminder that innovation often comes from creative thinking, not just new tools or tech partnerships.

Geothermal energy in the US has historically been concentrated in the West due to favorable geology, but emerging technologies have expanded the possibilities.

The upstream sector could help unlock geothermal energy’s potential but up to $1 trillion in project spending would be necessary over the next decade, the report says.

The proposed facility would be used to accelerate innovations in lithium extraction, carbon storage, and geothermal energy in addition to oil and gas technologies.
