About this Training
As countries and companies accelerate the transition to renewable energy sources, geothermal energy stands out for its baseload capacity and smaller land footprint than wind or solar. This introductory course provides a comprehensive overview of geothermal energy fundamentals for those looking to enter or transition into the industry.
Through interactive lectures, global case studies, and practical exercises, participants will gain literacy on geothermal energy and its global potential, the play-based exploration workflow for finding resources, drilling and subsurface technologies, surface infrastructure decisions, and economic considerations. The course will equip participants across technical with awareness of how geothermal projects progress from initial exploration through early development phases. Participants will exit better prepared to contribute to strategic and economic decisions in their own geothermal organizations and assets. With an experienced instructor well-versed in translating oil and gas capabilities to geothermal, this course offers the perfect springboard for pursuing additional training or projects in unlocking the nearly limitless heat beneath our feet.
