By 2050, it is estimated that the U.S. will require additional 700-900 GW of clean firm capacity\u00a0 to support increased demand. To responsibly meet this surging demand, new, scalable clean energy sources must be developed.<\/p>\n<p>A promising resource is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/interest-surging-for-superhot-superdeep-geothermal-energy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Superhot Rocks<\/a> (SHR, &gt; 374\u00b0C), which is vast and holds 100x the energy of all known fossil fuel reserves.

By extracting heat with water above 374\u00b0C in the reservoir (super-critical), Mazama Energy\u2019s wells can generate 5-7x higher power density than equivalent geothermal systems at 200\u00b0C. The high thermal density of SHR EGS will also reduce water usage by 75% compared to prevailing EGS projects.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_61455\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61455\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" fetchpriority=\"high\" loading=\"lazy\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-61455\" src=\"https:\/\/energybuzz.ph\/staging\/6915\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Mazama-model-1024x576-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/energybuzz.ph\/staging\/6915\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Mazama-model-1024x576-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Mazama-model-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Mazama-model-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Mazama-model-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Mazama-model-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Mazama-model.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-61455\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Harvesting heat from a hydraulically fracture superhot rock reservoir using horizontally drilled geothermal wells (source: Mazama Energy)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Mazama Energy has focused on advancements in three key technology areas to develop SHR resources reliably and at a reasonable cost:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Well engineering and construction to ensure long-life of SHR wells;<\/li>\n<li>Drilling of horizontal or near horizontal wells to increase contact with the SHR formation; and<\/li>\n<li>Creating high capacity, durable, stimulated flow paths in SHR to connect injector and producer wells.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4><strong>Mazama MUSE<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/energybuzz.ph\/staging\/6915\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/2122-2.png\" alt=\"\u2122\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\"> (Modular Unconventional Superhot Energy)<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Mazama\u2019s MUSE<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/energybuzz.ph\/staging\/6915\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/2122-2.png\" alt=\"\u2122\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\"> is the synthesis of engineering and operational advancements to drive down the cost of electricity. Innovations include a patented approach to drilling and guiding horizontal wells in SHR, novel stimulation techniques to create large EGS reservoirs, and advanced heat harvesting strategies to maximize power. MUSE performance projections indicate that power projects can be developed at costs less than\u00a0 $50 per MWh.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>SuperHot Rock (SHR) Drilling<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Over the course of a three-well program, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/utah-forge-reports-successful-stimulation-and-circulation-at-egs-site\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Utah FORGE<\/a> drill team reduced well drill times by more than half, with instantaneous ROP increases over 500% in the thick granite pay zone. At the same time, record footage per bit increased over 200%. Leveraging these advances to drill horizontal wells in SHR is a key consideration in Mazama Energy\u2019s drilling technology development program.<\/p>\n<p>At the 2024 Iceland Geothermal Conference, Tony Pink (Drilling Advisor) and Suri Suryanarayana (Well Technologies Chief) presented a gap analysis highlighting the technology needed to drill, case, and cement SHR geothermal wells. Their assessment was that drilling wells in SHR does not require a scientific breakthrough, but rather robust planning, extensive engineering iterations, and the determination to proceed with drilling. The current directional control tools to drill horizontal wells are not rated for SHR temperatures, so we must create the environment for them to perform.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_61593\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61593\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-61593\" src=\"https:\/\/energybuzz.ph\/staging\/6915\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Iceland-presentations-1024x342-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/energybuzz.ph\/staging\/6915\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Iceland-presentations-1024x342-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Iceland-presentations-400x134.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Iceland-presentations-768x257.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Iceland-presentations-1536x513.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Iceland-presentations-600x200.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.thinkgeoenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Iceland-presentations.jpg 1820w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-61593\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tony Pink and Suri Suryanarayana at the 2024 World Geothermal Congress (source: \u00a9 Tom Urban \u2013 Georg)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>However, Mazama Energy is currently developing a novel drilling system to enable the use of existing directional drilling tools in SHR conditions. This breakthrough uses supercritical CO2 (sCO2) as the drilling fluid and leverages Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) techniques from oil and gas to deliver significant temperature drops across the bottom hole assembly. Combining drilling with sCO2 that can enable off-the-shelf directional drilling tools with the drilling advances made at Utah FORGE and other geothermal sites, horizontal wells in SHR will become much cheaper and more reliable.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Thermal Lattice<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/energybuzz.ph\/staging\/6915\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/2122-2.png\" alt=\"\u2122\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\"> \u2013 Reservoir Creation<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Thermal Lattice<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/energybuzz.ph\/staging\/6915\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/2122-2.png\" alt=\"\u2122\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\"> is Mazama Energy\u2019s innovation for engineering high-capacity, durable geothermal reservoirs. One of the biggest challenges in harnessing heat from subsurface is achieving injector to producer fluid transfer paths that enable meaningful communication.<\/p>\n<p>In most hydrothermal systems where native permeability is present, connection of injector to producer wells can be more easily established. In deep, SHR environments where host rock permeabilities are minimal, the connection between wells occur through synthetically created pathways and natural fracture systems.<\/p>\n<p>Mazama Energy\u2019s approach involves a hybrid application of various techniques to significantly enhance the stimulated rock volume. With the theoretical work completed and the experimental testing progressing well in laboratories, the creation of a sustainable EGS reservoir in SHR now appears feasible. Harnessing rock mechanics concepts, past experiences in HPHT wells and various diagnostic technology approaches will help pave the way of maximizing exposure to temperature of a future SHR well while utilizing minimal amount of fluid. In Mazama Energy\u2019s upcoming field applications, various components of achieving effective well to well connections will be tested, including high temperature proppants and materials.<\/p>\n<p>Thermal Lattice<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/energybuzz.ph\/staging\/6915\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/2122-2.png\" alt=\"\u2122\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\"> is not just a process, but a convergence between application and the unique needs for SHR.
