"On the Intersection of Production Technology, Geothermal Energy, and Data Science"
Predavač: Pejman Shoeibi Omrani (TNO)
Datum, vrijeme i mjesto: ponedjeljak, 15.9.2025. u 13:00 na RGNF, Vijećnica fakulteta
Sažetak:
Geothermal energy has the potential to play a critical role in decarbonizing energy systems by
providing reliable baseload heating and power. However, production and operational
challenges such as injectivity decline, artificial lift failures, and flow assurance issues like
scaling and corrosion, which are very common in petroleum systems, can compromise
efficiency and increase costs. Reactive approaches to these issues often result in higher
operational expenditures (OPEX) and hinder the broader adoption of geothermal systems. The
industry is increasingly leveraging advancements in data acquisition and data science to
enhance operational efficiency. By integrating monitoring data with unstructured information,
decision support tools can be developed to proactively address challenges and optimize
performance. Drawing lessons from the petroleum sector, this lecture provides examples on
geothermal operational challenges with a special focus on electrical submersible pumps and
integrating digital tools and models to improve the production and operation. This presentation
bridges geothermal energy operation, data science, and production technologies to offer
insights relevant to both geothermal and petroleum sectors. The content can be tailored to
address key interests in operational optimization, data analytics, or artificial lift systems.
