Geothermal energy
The appraisal well in Utah confirmed a geothermal resource exceeding 555°F at a depth of approximately 11,200 ft.
The NLR has released its 2025 US Geothermal Market Report, documenting 4 years of industry growth and providing policymakers and stakeholders with an updated overview of the US geothermal market.
Experience in subsurface production and lift design is shaping a new generation of geothermal operations built for reliability and scalability.
-
The cutting-edge technological developments in geothermal are devoted to drilling into deeper, hotter, and harder rock. Oil and gas expertise and know-how holds the key to cost reduction.
-
A Canadian company reports that it has drilled and completed a historic horizontal well in Saskatchewan.
-
Extending and transferring the high-temperature capabilities of existing E&P technologies could make geothermal energy development possible—and scalable—anywhere in the world.
-
The new geothermal project development company will offer expertise in subsurface and drilling, project development, and risk mitigation.
-
Researchers at OU have received $2.5 million of US Department of Energy funding for a three-phase study to develop technologies to increase power production from geothermal wells. The geothermal development research site in Southern California sits on the US Navy’s largest single landholding.
-
Nearly 90% of geothermal capacity built since 2000 is binary cycle.
-
Oil and gas are not the only things in the ground that can power our lives. Heat in the form of geothermal energy is rapidly taking its place alongside other sources of renewable energy, buoyed by the lessons learned from decades of drilling for oil.
-
Geothermal power offers enormous potential—an inexhaustible supply heat to drive huge electric plants around the clock—but that extreme heat can quickly kill conventional hardware, which led to something new.
