Geothermal: Ennatuurlijk Aardwarmte drilling new well Middenmeer
Project Description
Ennatuurlijk Aardwarmte B.V., Well Engineering Partners and DrillTec will drill MDM-GT-10, a new geothermal producer from an existing production location in Middenmeer. MDM-GT-10 has a J-shaped trajectory with a maximum inclination of 53 degrees and a well TD at 3251mAH.
The well will be completed with a GRE-lined 13-3/8” x 7-5/8” tieback for corrosion protection.
Challenges
This well follows an existing well design however the inclination of this well with a maximum 53 degree will be challenging to drill. Additionally, this well will be drilled from an existing location which results in challenges during rigup and will require coordination of concurrent operations. The 12 ¼” section could not be finished as planned, due to hole related issues. The well has now been suspended to allow a different approach with a new target.
Role of WEP
Delivery of the concept design and detailed design document, Drilling program. Assisting in the procurement process, preparing HSSE documents, providing operational support in the field and from the office.
