Alphaxioms Geothermal News and Related Research Globally

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 bor...

October 1, 2025 marks a turning point for Mexico’s clean energy journey. For the very first time, researchers have carried out a geothermal potential evaluation within a gas-producing field in the Burgos Basin  an area traditionally known for its prolific hydrocarbon output. By:  Robert Buluma The study, led by Irving Torres Mata and Dr. Rosa María Prol-Ledesma from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), takes a bold step toward reimagining how oil and gas fields can transition into renewable energy hubs. From Gas to Geothermal: The Burgos Basin Advantage The Burgos Basin, located in northeastern Mexico, has long been recognized as an important hydrocarbon province, boasting strong gas production with some wells also yielding condensates. But beneath its oil and gas story lies another: a geothermal gradient between 40°C/km and 70°C/km , which places it firmly on the radar as a geothermal prospect. Thanks to hundreds of deep wells already drilled in the basin ...

GreenFire Energy and Toyo Engineering Join Forces to Transform Geothermal Projects in Asia Pacific By :  Robert Buluma September 10, 2025 – A groundbreaking partnership has been announced between GreenFire Energy and Toyo Engineering Corporation (TOYO), aimed at advancing next-generation geothermal projects across the Asia Pacific region. The collaboration will initially focus on Japan and Indonesia, two countries with vast untapped geothermal resources, before expanding into North America. Together, the two companies plan to unlock the full potential of existing geothermal fields by introducing innovative, closed-loop geothermal systems. A Leap Forward for Baseload Geothermal Power GreenFire Energy brings to the partnership its patented closed-loop and advanced geothermal systems (AGS). These systems are designed to capture heat and revitalize geothermal wells that conventional methods can no longer efficiently use. By pairing this with TOYO’s engineering, procurement, constructio...
