State-of-the-Art Geothermal Well Drilling Case Studies

State-of-the-Art Geothermal Well Drilling Case Studies provides updated information on technological advances and research on the state-of-the-art performance of recent geothermal wells drilled for energy in the global push to reduce greenhouse gases. The book provides advances in a rapidly growing market that has adopted and adapted oilfield technologies to rapid scale development and production as demonstrated through global examples in a case-study format. Different geologic formations and well trajectories require different drilling tools and drilling parameters to yield optimum results. Showcasing current examples of successful global geothermal well-drilling applications, this text provides readers, researchers, and industry professionals with the keys needed to rapidly scale geothermal drilling operations, a clean and abundant source of energy that supports sustainability and reduction of carbon emissions. Presents case studies highlighting global geothermal drilling applicationsHighlights best-in-class performancesContains no hypothetical examples: Real-world examples are provided by energy professionals responsible for real-world results INDICE: 1.
