Geothermal energy presents a promising solution with its abundance of untapped potential.<\/p>\n<p>With significant O&amp;G industry history, infrastructure and geotemperature conditions, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/studies-show-large-untapped-geothermal-potential-in-ukraine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ukraine has the potential for considerable geothermal resources<\/a>, including high-temperature geothermal reservoirs (both hydro and petrothermal) and shallow aquifers, which are distributed across its territory with the most promising areas confined to the oil &amp; gas-bearing regions.<\/p>\n<p>Harnessing this indigenous, renewable geoenergy resource offers various benefits, from mitigating greenhouse gas emissions to providing affordable solutions for local communities, enhancing energy security and fostering economic development of Ukraine along with the EU RePower strategy and Decarbonization Plan.<\/p>\n<p>However, despite its potential, geothermal energy remains mostly underexploited in Ukraine. How can Ukraine leverage its abundant geothermal resources to diversify its energy portfolio and enhance energy security? What are the key steps needed to elevate Ukraine\u2019s geothermal profile and integrate it into the global energy market?<\/p>\n<p>Taras Popadynets graduated from the Ivano-Frankivsk National Technical University of Oil and Gas with a MSc degree in petroleum engineering. He also has a MSc degree from the Ukrainian Catholic University (UCU LvBS), specializing in<br \/>\nManagement, program of Innovations.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2022, he has been a graduate student (Ph.D. program) at the Ivano-Frankivsk National Technical University of Oil and Gas, Program of Petroleum Engineering and Technology with a research topic of \u201cTechnology enhancement for repurposing P&amp;A and dry oil &amp; gas wells to geothermal heat extraction\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>His professional background includes the roles of drilling and well engineering positions of conventional and\u00a0 unconventional oil &amp; gas exploration, production, and P&amp;A campaigns. Since 2017\u00a0 he has been an officer in Ivano Frankivsk\/Central Ukraine SPE Professional Section, currently responsible for International relations. His professional career includes working locally and internationally is such companies as: Weatherford, ENI, Corva AI, Baker Hughes.<\/p>\n<p>In April 2022, Taras co-founded the NGO Geothermal Ukraine, a non-profit organization and was elected as a Head of the Board of the organization. The main area of activity is the geoenergy promotion and advocating, R&amp;D activities and feasibility study for shallow and deep geothermal energy projects application, hydrothermal balneological (SPA) application, geothermal energy storage, critical raw materials extraction potential as well as oil and gas legacy inventory repurposing potential evaluation to geothermal for running pilot projects.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/webinar-geothermal-in-ukraine-challenges-and-opportunities-31-may-2024\/\">Webinar \u2013 Geothermal in Ukraine; challenges and opportunities, 31 May 2024<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/\">ThinkGeoEnergy &#8211; Geothermal Energy News<\/a>.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div>\n<p>Join us for a webinar on the 31st of May with Geothermal Ukraine on Ukraine&#8217;s geothermal potential, as well the challenges and opportunities for wider use.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/webinar-geothermal-in-ukraine-challenges-and-opportunities-31-may-2024\/\">Webinar \u2013 Geothermal in Ukraine; challenges and opportunities, 31 May 2024<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/\">ThinkGeoEnergy &#8211; Geothermal Energy News<\/a>.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[1251,263,5802,4467,14670,14669,170,798,7490,2008,14938,11],"class_list":["post-18922","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-1251","tag-and","tag-challenges","tag-energy","tag-geo","tag-geothermal","tag-may","tag-opportunities","tag-think","tag-ukraine","tag-webinar","tag-years"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Webinar \u2013 Geothermal in Ukraine; challenges and opportunities, 31 May 2024 - Energy Buzz<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/energybuzz.ph\/webinar-geothermal-in-ukraine-challenges-and-opportunities-31-may-2024\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Webinar \u2013 Geothermal in Ukraine; challenges and opportunities, 31 May 2024 - Energy Buzz\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Join us for a webinar on the 31st of May with Geothermal Ukraine on Ukraine&#039;s geothermal potential, as well the challenges and opportunities for wider use.
