Simbach-Braunau (D, A) Previous Next

Project:

Drilling of two deep wells for geothermal use in the form of a doublet.
Using the geothermal doublet for district heating supply of the cities Simbach am Inn and Braunau am Inn.
The two deep wells are drilled within a distance of 15,5 m from one drill site in Simbach am Inn.
S-B Th 1 as a vertical drilling, S-B Th 2 as a deviated drilling that stretches under the river Inn as far as Austria.

Services:

Construction of the doublet Simbach-Braunau (exploration phase):

• Preliminary project management
• Geological feasibility study
• Drafting of documents for the application for EU funding
• Geological/technical design documentation and detailed planning for the deep drillings
• Administration of the EU-wide tendering procedure
• Administration of approval processes (water and mining law) in Bavaria and Austria
• Construction management, support and documentation
• Planning and tendering for the establishment of continuous operation
• Acceptance and supervision of start-up operations
• Hydrogeological monitoring

Continuous operation Simbach-Braunau (production phase):

• Preparation of applications for the operating permit in Bavaria and Upper Austria (e.g.: licence area "Aenus", water and mining law permits, main operating plan)
• Drafting of annual reports (for water authority)
• Drafting of main operating plans
• Numerical modelling of the geothermal doublet operation (e.g.: expert opinion on deep heat mining)
