OptiDrill Advisory System aims to provide a solution for the drilling optimisation

With the recent energy crisis in Europe and worldwide, there is no doubt that we need several alternatives and sustainable energy sources. Geothermal energy has been identified with one of the greatest potentials as the world is transitioning toward renewable and sustainable net zero energy. However, this geothermal energy comes with a high price, and …

The earth has enough geothermal energy to supply twice over the world’s total electrical needs.

According to the MIT Technology Review, the earth has enough geothermal energy to supply twice over the world’s total electrical needs. Unfortunately, the geothermal power is used to generate only about 0.3% of the worldwide electricity generation. Until now, almost all geothermal energy has gone unused. It’s the high time we think about utilizing the …
