Geothermal energy
Our strengths
- Skills and multidisciplinary expertise making it possible to contribute to all the building blocks in the geothermal energy value chain:
• Geosciences,
• Thermodynamics,
• Geomechanics,
• Fluid mechanics,
• Physical chemistry,
• Microbiology,
• Process design and modeling,
• Applied mathematics, digital technologies,
• Economics.
- Advanced numerical tools for underground management developed for oils and gases and transferable to geothermal energy:
• Reservoir modeling, incorporating adapted thermodynamics, thermicity and fluid-rock interactions,
• Basin modeling, incorporating the estimation of thermal exchanges on a basin scale
- A dual approach combining:
• experimentation,
• simulation.
- Proximity with industrial players and a knowledge of market needs based on listening to customers.
- Applied research and a capacity to address operational problems immediately.
- The integration of the Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) dimension from the outset of projects.
