SLB is helping Oman build a national strategy to develop its geothermal resources.
The company has evaluated data from more than 7000 oil, gas and water wells, with the objective of mapping sweet spots for geothermal prospects. SLB experts assessed surface, subsurface and well data from the national data repository over a three-month period.
In the initial phase, SLB’s GeothermEx multidisciplinary geothermal consulting team used a proprietary AI solution to expedite assessment, sorting, and evaluation of the huge volume of data from the Oman Oil and Gas Data Repository (OGDR). The next phase will include assessment of the economic feasibility of the development of potential geothermal resources.
