End of life oil and gas wells don’t have to be end of life wellbores.  In recent years, many new ideas and technologies have been developed to repurpose wellbores, many of which focus on energy transition disciplines.  This tech-talk will present industry leaders speaking about 3 of the established opportunities to repurpose wellbores in meaningful and economic ways.  Dr. Joseph Batir, Geothermal Lead for Teverra, discusses these different technologies with an emphasis on geothermal energy opportunities, even where traditional geothermal isn’t available.  Dr. Susan Nash, Director of Innovation & Emerging Science and Technology for AAPG, discusses the dynamics of lithium exploration and extraction.  Derek Gonsuron, Head of US Content - Upstream Solutions, covers a high-level assessment of the CCUS industry, project economics, opportunity screening, and a geoscience project example.  Jared Clarke, Owner/Partner at Forza Resources, discusses land and legal implications of alternative wellbore uses in the oilfield.
