Alex Vetsak featured in SPE International livestream to discuss insulated drill pipe technology
Moderated by Janelle Daniel, SPE International featured Eavor’s Drilling Technology Manager Alex Vetsak in a livestream titled Powering Performance – Engineering with Data & the Energy Expansion. Vetsak outlined Eavor’s use of Insulated Drill Pipe (IDP) technology and the key advantages it offers when drilling hotter and deeper Next-Generation Geothermal wells. In the case of geothermal well construction, as he explains, hotter subsurface rock, allows for an increase in total energy output per well. Therefore, developers will always drill deeper to extract more heat from higher temperature sources.
