Geothermal resource assessment consulting services
Validating clean, baseload power potential for geothermal project developments
Overview
We see the risk and reward in every resource
In any geothermal project, the most significant variable is the resource itself. Several moving parts need to come together for a commercially successful geothermal project development. The critical parameters are resource temperature, depth, productivity, and sustainability.
We leverage our GeothermEx™ geothermal consulting services to accurately evaluate geothermal resources. The breadth and depth of our subsurface knowledge and expertise sets us apart—from describing the geology, stratigraphy, and tectonic structures, to permeable pathways for geothermal fluid migration. We comb through every relevant piece of your geological, geochemical, and geophysical drilling and testing data to unearth the truth about your resource—whether its power capacity is 5 or 500 MW.
Applications
The global leader for geothermal resource assessments
We’ve assessed all types of geothermal resources, supporting the development of 11 GW of clean baseload electricity.
GeothermEx services have been involved in 70% of all operating geothermal power projects worldwide.
Benefits
An intrinsic understanding of your resource, delivered
Our resource assessments—which typically include a conceptual resource model and an estimate of generation potential—provide a clear view of your project’s risks and opportunities.
Quantification of hundreds of resources
We've evaluated resources of all types in numerous geologic domains—including high-, moderate-, and low-enthalpy resources for power, heat, and hybrid approaches. We've consulted on all these types of projects, including nearly 200 operating projects.
Unlocking more production
We understand that resource characteristics dictate project size, and we undertake analyses that reveal hidden opportunities to produce more.
Large and small geothermal power and heating projects
We've worked on projects that generate a few hundred kWe and consulted for most of the world's largest geothermal project developments, generating baseload power of up to 2 GWe.
