NexTitan is GA Drilling’s downhole drive system that applies weight on bit at the bit and reacts to downhole conditions in real time. For an energy buyer, the point is that it drills hot, hard rock faster, which lowers the cost of the wells and therefore the cost of the energy delivered to your site.
See NexTitanHot rock exists under most sites; the question is depth. Deeper is more expensive, which is why drilling cost decides whether a project works. We assess that first.
Calculate drilling costYes. Unlike solar and wind, geothermal output doesn’t depend on weather or time of day. It is the only renewable that provides clean firm power on its own.
How it worksYes. Geothermal runs 24 hours a day regardless of weather, which matches a data center’s constant load better than solar or wind. The question for a given site is depth: how far down the rock is hot enough, and what it costs to drill there. GA Drilling assesses that for sites that want on-site geothermal power.
Clean firm power is electricity that is low-carbon and available on demand at any hour, without depending on weather or storage. Nuclear and geothermal are the main sources. Geothermal is the only renewable that provides it on its own, which is why data centers and heavy industry are looking at it for 24/7 supply.
Geothermal heat pumps use shallow boreholes, usually 100–200 m, and the ground’s stable temperature to heat and cool buildings; they still need electricity to run. Deep geothermal drills kilometres down to rock hot enough to produce heat or electricity directly, at the scale a data center or industrial plant needs. GA Drilling works on deep geothermal.
It depends on the local geothermal gradient. In most regions, temperatures useful for industrial heat or power are found at 2–5 km. The deeper the target, the more of the well is in hard rock and the higher the drilling cost, which is why the drilling method decides whether a site is viable.
