Abstract

Summary

It is well known integrated software and workflows enables geoscientists, engineers and managers to collaborate for greater efficiency, productivity and understanding. Combining the right technology, data, knowledge, systems and people will lead to measurable gains and productivity. New technologies and software solutions are tackling this challenge in solving petroleum needs for integrated workflows. Geothermal subsurface challenges, although similar to petroleum, have their own intricacies due to it having a small global footprint and inability to attract similar level of investment. This paper presents a modern workflow-based technology suite which encompasses the key parts of the geothermal exploration and development workflow.
