GeoWell is a three-year collaborative research project. The GeoWell consortium gathers 8 partners from public research institutes, academia, industry, and one SME, as well as two third parties. Íslenskar orkurannsóknir - Iceland GeoSurvey (Iceland) is the project coordinator.
The project aims at developing reliable, cost effective and environmentally safe technologies for design, completion and monitoring of high-temperature geothermal wells:
-
Cement and sealing technologies
-
Materials and coupling of casings
-
Temperature and strain measurements in wells using fibre optic technologies to monitor well integrity
-
Development of risk assessment methods
The technology developed will be tested in laboratories and partly in real geothermal environment.
