Teverra's AI-Powered Breakthrough: Revolutionizing Clean Energy Drilling with Real-Time Risk Management

Teverra's AI-Driven Innovation Set to Revolutionize Clean Energy Well Drilling

Department of Energy Awards $1.2 Million Grant for Real-Time Drilling Risk Management

ATLANTA, January 30, 2025 — In a groundbreaking move for clean energy technology, Teverra LLC has secured a $1.2 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). The funding will propel the advancement of Teverra’s Drilling Dynamics Geomechanics (DDG™) technology into real-time capabilities, setting the stage for a transformative era in subsurface drilling operations.

Geothermal drilling, For day ones they will attest that it could take atleast half the amount of coming up with a geothermal power plant. However this is no longer the case when we think of this groundbreaking breakthrough which was recently unearthed

Spearheaded by Dr. Hamed Soroush, Teverra's founder and CEO, this initiative promises to tackle some of the most critical challenges in CO2 storage, geothermal energy, hydrogen storage, and oil and gas exploration. By delivering instant insights into the subsurface state of stress and mechanical properties, the DDG™ technology will revolutionize well drilling efficiency and safety.

AI-Driven Real-Time Insights

Conventional drilling methods heavily rely on limited datasets and logging, often leading to inefficiencies and costly mistakes. Teverra’s DDG™ technology leverages the power of artificial intelligence to analyze drilling dynamics data in real-time. The result? Instant risk assessment and mitigation without the need for traditional data logging.

"This grant underscores Teverra's commitment to innovation and sustainability in the energy sector," said Dr. Soroush. "Our goal is to bolster safety, slash costs, and boost efficiency in drilling operations through enhanced technology."

Just recently ,Teverra and Permian lab had reached a concensus of working together towards geothermal revitilization

With proven reliability through extensive field testing, the real-time capabilities of DDG™ are set to redefine industry standards. The introduction of an automated data analytics pipeline will offer immediate insights and recommendations at drilling sites, significantly reducing non-productive time and enhancing project economics.

Unlocking Billions in Savings for Clean Energy Projects

The implications of this technology are monumental. By mitigating risks and enhancing efficiency, DDG™ has the potential to save billions annually, particularly in low-margin projects like geothermal and carbon capture and storage (CCS) developments. This aligns with DOE’s mission to foster scientific innovation and economic growth while advancing clean energy solutions.

Driving the Future of Energy Innovation

Teverra's approach signals a significant leap forward for the energy sector. The company’s commitment to innovation spans advanced geomechanics, geothermal resource development, subsurface engineering design, and applied artificial intelligence.

Initially Teverra was awarded a statewide geothermal fasttracking campaign

By harnessing these competencies, Teverra'snot only mitigates exploration risks but also optimizes drilling, completions, and production processes, paving the way for safer, cleaner, and more cost-effective subsurface operations.

Teverra has roots from oil and Gas and its obvious the geothermal industry relations with oil is great day by day...what a decade.
