Energy transition
The new guidelines were released prior to reports that enhanced geothermal developer Fervo Energy experienced a blowout in Utah with no reported injuries.
Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico have formed the Mountain West Geothermal Consortium to turn geothermal energy into gigawatts of baseload power.
This paper presents a case study of oriented tubing-conveyed perforation followed by an acidizing operation to overcome technical challenges posed by a depleted reservoir targeted for a carbon capture, utilization, and storage project.
