What We Do
GEOTHERM DISTRIBUTION SA operates 3 geothermal water wells, all in the Valcea County, with associated gas fuels (gas/water ratio of approx. 1-1,5 Nmc gas/mc water), with total mineralization of 13-15 g/l, temperatures of 95-97 °C and artesian capacity of 18-22 l/s.
- The geothermal water is extracted through 3 wells drilled at 3250 m (the Calimanesti 1009 well and the Caciulata 1006 well) and at 2641 m (the Cozia 1008 well).
- The geothermal water extracted by the 3 wells is used for energy purposes with local installations and by customers for heating and hot water for domestic consumption and/or used directly in balneary therapy and in thermal recreational water pools.
- The 3 boreholes produced approx. 1 mil m³ of geothermal water (approx. 56 000 Gcal) which provided for 625 apartments, 60 companies and 68 villas and houses.
- Using geothermal water brought savings of approx. 5000 TOE (Tone of oil equivalent).
- In 2024 we finalize the last well in Calimanesti Area – 1010 Seaca well and we are prepared to produce aprox. 300.000 m³ of geothermal water, generated a total production aprox. 1,3 mil m³ of geothermal wather in Calimensti Area.
Who We Are
Geotherm is the largest private drilling and exploitation company in Romania, with over 70 years of experience in exploration and prospecting activities.Integrates high professional standards and perform in oil and gas drilling, geothermalwater wells, repairs, mud logging and other related services and assistance. Geotherm alsoprovides thermal energy from the exploitation of geothermal water.In 1964 the company accomplished the first drilling work for geothermal water supply in Romania. Up to present more than 247 geothermal water wells – depths ranging from 1,000 to 3,500m (over 355,000m) and 450 – 1200C for research and production, were drilled in all suitable areas of the country (Calimanesti city, Caciulata city – Olt Valley, Valcea county –district; Snagov commune, Ilfov Agricultural District; Otopeni commune, Ilfov Agricultural District;Sanicolaul Mare city, Timis county).Geotherm supplied geothermal energy equating 5100 tons of oil per year, in the benefit of 10cities and villages. The cost of geothermal energy was about 30% of the cost of conventionalenergy.
The company has a Geothermal Division in charge with the geological research, the drilling, testing and development works and current exploitation of the geothermal water reservoirs. Onefifth of the total of 97 geothermal water wells is supplying the thermal energy for various beneficiaries, energy to be used for heating, sanitary water, greenhouse heating, aquaculture and spa-therapy.
