Project - Perfect Well Research

Wellfield drilling can account for 60 percent of the cost of a geothermal project. Perfect well analysis helps identify maximum output from a given well and compares it with real world results to help identify the most promising drilling opportunities. Optimizing well development based on existing wellfield data and methods can reduce failures and dramatically reduce costs.

In one of the largest perfect well research projects to date, AltaRock Energy is partnering with Oregon State University, Stanford University and other experts to unlock new and better drilling techniques using machine learning enhanced analysis.
