Project Description

To cope with corrosion issues without injection of corrosion inhibitor a detailed well design making use of corrosion-resistant materials was made by WEP, in close cooperation with our project partners; Hydreco Geomec, HVC, and Veegeo. WEP assisted in the procurement of well materials and prepared the drilling programs and HSE documents. Drilling of the two geothermal wells was without major problems and the installation of the GRE-lined casing was also a success. Drilling started in March 2020 and was completed in May 2020 using the DrillTec Vario Rig.
