Geothermals (Engineering)

UGS GmbH has been active in medium and deep geothermal energy for more than 40 years. For the implementation of your geothermal project, we offer you the necessary expertise from an interdisciplinary cooperation of experienced experts from geosciences and engineering according to the latest state of the art.
We support your project in all development phases – from the initial study through to operation. Our services include the planning and implementation of all measures for the exploration and development of the reservoir, support during the approval process, and supervision during the operating phase.

Our services in geothermal energy include:

  • Project management
    • Project coordination, controlling
    • Permitting
    • Tendering procedure (nationwide, EU-wide)
    • Project purchasing
  • Preliminary planning
    • Regional, potential, and feasibility studies
    • Pre-planning of seismic measurements
    • Exploration and development concepts
    • 3D structural modelling and thermal-hydraulic model simulation
  • Exploration
    • Planning and supervision services in the fields of well pad construction, wells (medium and deep geothermal energy), well-site geology, and hydraulic tests
    • Geological support for the evaluation of seismic measurements
    • Reservoir characterisation based on borehole measurements, core investigations, testing, preparation of production analyses, and reservoir engineering
    • 3D structural modelling and thermal-hydraulic model simulation
  • Development/operation/extraction
    • Planning and supervision for installing production equipment, construction of above-ground thermal water circuits, well interventions, workovers, and measurement and testing services
    • Monitoring (geochemical-hydraulic-thermal)
    • Reservoir management and geothermal-hydrodynamic model simulation
    • Integrity assessment of wells
    • Process and plant optimisation
    • Repair and maintenance
  • Decommissioning and dismantling
    • Decommissioning and dismantling concepts
    • Planning and supervision services for P&A of deep wells as well as dismantling of facilities and well pads
    • Support for remediation/recultivation measures

With our pool of engineers and our own drilling and workover rigs, we are also able to carry out complex medium and deep geothermal projects as a general contractor.
