Teverra and Permian Development Lab To Develop Texas Geothermal Landscape

Unveiling Tomorrow's Energy Solutions: Permian Energy Development Lab and Teverra Join Forces

By :Robert Buluma


In the vast expanse of the Permian Basin, where oil and innovation flow in equal measure, a groundbreaking partnership has emerged to redefine the future of energy. Enter the Permian Energy Development Lab (PEDL) and Teverra, two visionary entities united by a shared commitment to pioneering advanced energy solutions.

Hot off the press from the heart of Odessa, Texas, comes the announcement of a strategic alliance poised to revolutionize the energy landscape. With Teverra's expertise in geothermal energy, carbon storage, and cleaner oil and gas solutions, coupled with PEDL's dedication to research and collaboration, the stage is set for an electrifying journey towards sustainable energy.

Teverra, a trailblazing technology company, has already marked its territory with a recent triumph—a coveted contract with Colorado to conduct a sweeping analysis of geothermal resources statewide As earlier reported by our business intelligence department And that's just the tip of the iceberg. With a string of accolades from federal agencies and a penchant for innovation, Teverra stands at the forefront of the energy revolution.

Meanwhile, PEDL's momentum is equally palpable, having inked collaborations with SOLARCYCLE and the Roosevelt Firm. Their ambitious plans center around a cutting-edge test facility in Yoakum County, Texas, integrating a myriad of advanced energy technologies—from solar power to carbon capture and utilization. With a National Science Foundation grant fueling their aspirations, PEDL is poised to become the beating heart of innovation in the Permian Basin.

Marilu Hastings of PEDL articulates the significance of Teverra's involvement, emphasizing the pivotal role geothermal expertise plays in shaping the future of energy in Permian communities. Echoing this sentiment, Hamed Soroush, CEO of Teverra, champions the partnership as a gateway to an advanced, decarbonized energy economy—a vision shared by both entities.


But what exactly does this partnership entail? Brace yourself for an odyssey into the realms of subsurface energy storage, geothermal resource assessment, carbon capture, and hydrogen storage. With PEDL's network of researchers and Teverra's prowess in subsurface technologies, the possibilities are as boundless as the Permian horizon.

At its core, the partnership embodies collaboration in its purest form. Joint projects, grant pursuits, and knowledge exchange form the bedrock of this symbiotic relationship—each facet driving us closer to a sustainable energy utopia.

As the Permian Energy Development Lab and Teverra embark on this transformative journey, the energy sector braces itself for a seismic shift. With innovation as their compass and sustainability as their guiding star, they chart a course towards a future where energy knows no bounds.

To attest Teverra is amongst the main companies which are making the Geothermal decade to come to life

In the crucible of collaboration, where passion meets purpose, tomorrow's energy solutions are forged. And in the heart of the Permian, where oil flows and innovation thrives, the future of energy awaits its awakening.

Amsterdam Strikes Geothermal Gold: Hot, Thick, Permeable Reservoir Confirmed

Breakthrough Beneath the Beach: Amsterdam Region Hits Geothermal Paydirt at Strandeiland By: Robert Buluma The Netherlands just took a giant leap toward fossil-free heating. On the artificial island of Strandeiland (part of Amsterdam’s fast-growing IJburg district), the SCAN exploration well has officially confirmed what the geothermal community has been hoping for: a thick, hot, and , most importantly permeable reservoir in the Slochteren Formation. Key numbers that matter:   Reservoir thickness: 152 meters   Bottom-hole temperature: 66 °C   Permeability: confirmed via successful production and injection tests   That’s not screaming-hot by Icelandic standards, but for direct-use district heating in one of Europe’s densest urban areas, 66 °C is more than enough to supply thousands of homes with clean, baseload heat – forever. Why This Well Changes Everything for the Netherlands The Dutch government launched the SCAN program (Seismic Campaign Nethe...

INTERVIEW, Geretsried and Beyond: Eavor’s Blueprint for Reliable, Sustainable Energy

Robert Buluma :  Alphaxioms Responses were provided by Jeanine Vany, Executive Vice-President of Corporate Affairs, Eavor . Can you explain the key technological advancements in the latest iteration of the Eavor-Loop™ system? We have made a number of technological advancements at our project in Geretsried Germany . This includes innovation and learning resulting in dramatic improvements in our drilling performance and we’re proud to talk about our technology. For example, Eavor recently announced successful implementation of our in-house AMR (active magnetic ranging) tool which makes drilling more accurate and efficient. Eavor-Link™ AMR uses magnetic ranging while drilling to maintain constant alignment as it drills two wells at approximately 100 metres apart before they are intersected to create a continuous geothermal loop, which is then sealed with Eavor’s proprietary Rock-Pipe™ formula. With real-time data transmission between downhole sensors, the technology ensures tighter bo...

Driving the UK Toward Net Zero: Chris Sladen on Geothermal’s Untapped Potential

Alphaxioms, we talked to Chris Sladen about his involvement in geothermal both in the UK, and globally By:  Robert Buluma Chris, please begin by explaining a little about yourself, and why you have a passion for geothermal? I have spent over 45 years involved in energy. Following undergraduate studies in geology at Southampton University, and a PhD in sedimentology at Reading University, I joined the energy sector in Aberdeen in 1980. It was a fascinating era when it seemed like at least one giant oil & gas field was discovered offshore every month; the wealth creation for the UK was gigantic. I got to see so much geology and rocks - my true passion. I moved to China in late 1983; not today’s China, this was over 40 years ago, a country closed for decades and embarking on an open-door policy, in part to bring both investment and technology. I became very interested in energy trends, energy politics, and new geography created by changing politics leading to opportunities for ene...
