Company's story
Our Specialty
A Traditional Resource Poised for Resurgence
Our breakthrough technology leverages over a decade of innovation in drilling and production from modern oil and gas development, leading to major improvements in system performance and well design.
We employ precision directional drilling technology to drill horizontally in geothermal reservoirs. This enables us to drill multiple wells from a single location, dramatically lowering our surface footprint and reducing drilling risks. Horizontal drilling also facilitates greater access to geologies that were previously challenging to reach, increasing the total resource potential for geothermal energy.
By installing fiber optic cables downhole in our geothermal wells, we gather and analyze real-time data on flow, temperature, and performance of the resource, providing unique insights into subsurface behavior at a resolution never before possible. We have developed advanced data analytics algorithms that enable us to identify precisely where the best resources exist and optimize flow distribution through the reservoir to maximize heat mining efficiency.
Taken together, Fervo’s innovative approach to geothermal well design, reservoir engineering management, and advanced data analytics allows us to access a massive resource base that other operators are unable to exploit.
