Well Engineering Partners participates in the DEEPLIGHT project, awarded in Joint Call 2021 of GEOTHERMICA and JPP Smart Energy Systems network, and that kicked-off in Rijswijk and Eindhoven early December 2022. An international consortium consisting of 12 parties from 5 countries will team up in the project to develop an innovative drilling technology that uses […]

Volkert de Ruiter will present on the 18th of October at the upcoming  European Geothermal Congress in Berlin Germany. He will present the paper “Case study of drilling a big diameter, large outstep and high-angle well”. Read more about the European Geothermal Congress.

Well Engineering Partners participates in the DRAGLOW project which aims at assessing the techno-economic viability of using environmentally friendly drag reducing agents (DRA) in geothermal multi-source district heating-cooling systems as an alternative and innovative cost reduction solution. On April 14th, 2022 the first public DRAGLOW event will be held to inform all interested parties of […]

CASING WEAR ALLOWANCE & WELL LIFE EXPECTANCY Casing wear and reduction of casing mechanical limits is a continuous concern during the exploitation phase by the process of erosion and the natural effect of corrosion as well as during drilling and well interventions due to e.g. workstring damage, Casing integrity relies highly on the preliminary casing […]

Short summary of the presentation: Safety and no damaging impact on the environment are preconditions for acceptance of geothermal energy by the public and to make it scalable. The role of project-specific Risk Assessment is the foundation of all processes and security of humans and the environment. The presentation gave an overview of the mandatory […]
