It's been a busy last two days at , we’ve had the privilege of hosting and participating in two incredible panels - along with our ongoing booth presentations - diving into the technical evolution and future of our industry.
A huge thanks to everyone who packed the rooms for these discussions! Here are a few highlights:
Digital Innovation and Geothermal (with XGS Energy, Cyrq Energy and Seequent)
Our panel highlighted two critical drivers for the geothermal market's future growth:
📈 Driving scale through data and confidence
The geothermal market hinges on rapid scale and accelerating deployment, with data and technology playing a pivotal role:
Risk mitigation: Technologies such as advanced reservoir simulation help operators understand resource uncertainty and accurately define risk.
Capital unlocking: This technological capability gives financiers the confidence needed to invest, unlocking the capital required to scale operations faster.
🤝 Accelerating pathways via collaboration
Rapid scale also requires shared knowledge and resources across industries:
Cross-industry learnings: The geothermal sector can greatly benefit from established practices, such as those in oil and gas.
Technological synergy: Open data sharing and high-performance cloud compute accelerators speed up development pathways and overcome traditional growth barriers.
📊 The Future of Geothermal Resource Assessment and Management (with Ormat Technologies, Geologica, The Geothermal Institute, at the University of Auckland and Seequent)
Top takeaways from our expert panel:
Resource management: Continuous subsurface science, quality data, and evolving models are essential for integrated, long-term decision-making.
🎓 Education & skills: Industry and education must collaborate to prioritise continuous, practical learning and field-applicable skills.
💻 Future tools & technology: The impact of new technologies is an enabler of different disciplines in the improvement of subsurface understanding.
We have one final day left here in Calgary! If you haven't stopped by Booths 515 & 614 yet to see our digital workflows in action, come and chat tomorrow.
