Baker Hughes Has Launched Geothermal Service Center In Celle

 Baker Hughes Launches Geothermal Service Center in Celle



By Robert Buluma

Baker Hughes, a pioneer in geothermal energy for over four decades, marked a significant milestone on February 15th with the inauguration of its new Artificial Lift Geothermal Service Center in Celle. This state-of-the-art facility will serve as a hub for assembling, maintaining, and testing the company's geothermal pumps.


From its inception in the 1980s with the installation of the first Electric Submersible Pump (ESP) to its current position with the deployment of the world's largest ESP motors across Europe and the USA, Baker Hughes has played a pivotal role in driving the energy transition. Gustavo Marin, Vice President of Artificial Lift Systems, expressed pride in the company's geothermal energy track record, affirming its commitment to supporting partners through the energy transition.


The opening ceremony saw a gathering of esteemed customers and stakeholders, including Dr. Jörg Nigge, Mayor of Celle, who applauded Baker Hughes for achieving this significant milestone. Attendees were treated to insightful lectures followed by a tour of the facility.


The new service center in Celle will facilitate the dismantling, inspection, and repair of Baker Hughes' geothermal pumps, alongside comprehensive testing of the entire ESP line. Additionally, the center boasts a chemistry laboratory for analyzing ESP deposits from the field. To drive continuous innovation and enhance operational efficiency, an engineering department at the facility will focus on advancements in large-volume, high-temperature electrostatic precipitator systems.

Polands Geothermal Wells hits 5km depth Eyeing a 7Km Threshold

Geothermal Milestone Reached: Banska PGP-4 Well in Szaflary, Poland Hits 5-Kilometer Depth By : Robert Buluma In a significant development for geothermal energy enthusiasts, drilling operations at the Banska PGP-4 well in Szaflary, Poland have reached a depth of 5 kilometers, marking a major milestone in the project's progress towards its 7-kilometer target. Since its inception, the ambitious geothermal drilling project in Szaflary has been making steady strides. As of the end of 2023, the well has successfully reached a depth of 5000 meters, uncovering promising results along the way. Notably, the well has tapped into a sizable reservoir boasting temperatures of 120 °C. The drilling will persist until it reaches the targeted depth of 7000 meters, where another aquifer is anticipated. The entire drilling endeavor is slated for completion within the first quarter of 2024. Initiated in 2019, the plans to drill a 7-kilometer geothermal well in Podhale, Szaflary aimed at gathering cruc

Eavor Goes Deeper in Geretesried In Search For Geothermal
