The Geological Survey of NRW has introduced a young for the drilling of a geothermal analysis borehole within the metropolis of Krefeld in NRW, Germany.
The Geological Survey of North Rhine-Westphalia (GD NRW) in Germany has revealed a young for the drilling of 1000-meter analysis borehole within the metropolis of Krefeld in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), Germany. The borehole will likely be used to guage the geothermal potential within the area as a part of a state-wide effort to discover the geothermal assets of NRW. The drilling is deliberate to begin by March 2025.
The relevent doc to take part within the tender may be accessed through this hyperlink. The deadline for submission will likely be on the seventeenth of September 2024.
The plan to drill a analysis borehole in Krefeld had been introduced just some months earlier.
The drilling is a part of the excellent nationwide exploration and drilling program geared toward investigating the “Kohlenkalks” limestone layer so as to additional discover the geothermal potential of the area. The formation has been recognized by in depth preliminary seismic surveys which have produced promising outcomes. The limestone layer is estimated to be at depths of 400 to 700 meters, with an estimated thickness of 300 meters. The borehole is meant to penetrate the limestone layer utterly
The tender may have a second half, to be introduced later, which can cowl geophysical borehole measurements associated to the geothermal exploration undertaking.
