Geothermal

Geothermal drilling: see the clay cap, the losses and the heat on one depth.

Volcanic rocks, hydrothermal alteration, total losses and hot returns. BoreWatch puts the mud log beside the geology so the wellsite geologist and the drilling engineer read the same well, while the hole is still open.

Free trial up to 6 months with your work email: 1 + 2 + 3 months, each step after a short feedback form. No card.

Geothermal well GA-B3 in BoreWatch: ROP, WOB, torque, SPP, mud weight, mud temperatures and pit volume beside lava and tuff lithology, alteration, minerals and losses, with total-loss events in the monitor
What you see

One hole. Every file, on one depth.

The local engine sorts the files by well, builds the tracks and flags the events as new data arrives.

Clay cap and the first epidote

Alteration and mineral tracks beside the drilling response; compare wells aligned on the clay-cap base or the first epidote.

Losses before they surprise you

Partial and total loss zones on every track, the offset wells that lost at the same level ranked and on the map.

Heat and gas on the same depth

Return temperature, its trend, and H2S / CO2 with the rock that produced them.

What it reads

The files you already get.

  • Mud logs (CSV, LAS 2.0, WITSML 1.4): ROP, WOB, torque, SPP, flow, pits, mud weight, mud temperatures in and out, H2S and CO2
  • Geology tables: lithology, alteration type and intensity, MeB, and the clay and mineral columns (smectite, illite, chlorite, epidote, silica, ...)
  • Loss tables (partial and total losses with rates), casing strings, directional surveys, and daily geology and drilling reports that run ahead of the database

Drop them into one folder on the Windows computer that holds the data. Column names and units are recognised automatically; the engine works out the industry of each well from its own data.

Two geothermal wells compared in BoreWatch: drilling curves overlaid on depth, geology columns with clay-cap base, first epidote and first loss depths
2 to 10 wells side by side: drilling response overlaid, clay-cap base, first epidote and first loss compared.
Hand-off to your other software

No re-typing.

After every update the engine writes the files your modelling and log software imports: Leapfrog well tables (lithology, alteration, minerals, losses, casing), PetraSim well files, feed-zone candidates from the loss zones, LAS and GeoJSON.

Your source files stay on your computer.

Only encrypted dashboard data is synced; we cannot read it.

  1. Start the free trial

    Sign-in details, license key and the installer arrive by email.

  2. Open the sample data

    A synthetic geothermal field is included, so you see it working at once.

  3. Add your own well

    Drop your files into the folder; the dashboard fills in.
