Case study – Fishing a geothermal pump stuck at 2067 meters depth
When something goes wrong in geothermal operations, the corrective measures must be done in a way that causes no further damage to operational assets. In the case of well interventions, one of the top priorities is ensuring that the integrity of the well is not compromised. This is showcased in this case study by French drilling company Enedril where a downhole pump had to be fished out of a well. Geothermal energy is emerging as one of the most promising solutions for the en
