geothermal energy
-
The oilfield service giant has identified the nation's potential geothermal sweet spots after analyzing data from more than 7,000 wells.
-
Geothermal energy has the potential to play a significant role in Japan's energy transition.
-
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.
-
The drilling of wells in shale and granite shares a common need—faster drilling is required to make it work.
-
Founded in 2008, GA Drilling is developing plasma-based tools to achieve drilling speeds that are about three times faster than what conventional bit technology has historically achieved.
-
The two companies will work to retrofit nonproducing wells for geothermal production and scale GreenFire Energy’s closed-loop advanced geothermal systems.
-
Rodolfo Camacho-Velázquez identifies areas of opportunity for future reservoir engineers related to the technical challenges of increased production and recovery of complex conventional and unconventional reservoirs, the application of Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies in reservoir subdisciplines, and the energy transition.
-
The government is offering up to $20 million to test applications that will shorten the time it takes to drill geothermal wells.
-
The perspectives gained from the Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference offer a glimpse of life after COVID-19, which looks better and different.
-
Grants have been offered to four separate pilot-style projects in order to test the geothermal potential of old oil and gas wells.
