ThermaPrime钻探公司（ThermaPrime）已成功完成了菲律宾地热生产公司（PGPC）的地热项目中的钻探计划。该计划包括在四年的时间内钻探了12口生产井和3口多级注水井，以及进行了10次修井作业。

ThermaPrime是一家专门从事地热井和相关服务的钻探服务承包公司。作为第一控股集团的成员和总承包商FirstBalfour, Inc.的全资子公司，ThermaPrime处于集团低碳足迹和再生议程的前沿。

在整个钻探计划中，ThermaPrime取得了一些显著的成就- 在该国钻探了最深的“大孔”地热井，深度达到11,849英尺（3611米），并且创下了地热钻探速度纪录，完成时间不到一个月。

钻探活动为PGPC在拉古纳和巴丹加斯以及阿尔拜的地热场地提供了超过100兆瓦的额外蒸汽产量。PGPC计划推进其其他地热特许权，并根据政府追求绿色和可持续能源发展的方针，将可再生能源产量增加到约600兆瓦。

今年早些时候，拥有PGPC的综合企业SM投资公司（SMIC）宣布了一项支出计划，每年投资30亿菲律宾比索（约合5380万美元），在未来五年内将公司的地热装机容量建设至目前马克班和提维地热田的两倍。

ThermaPrimeDrilling Corporation(ThermaPrime) has successfully completed a drilling program in the geothermal projects of the PhilippineGeothermal Production Company, Inc(PGPC). The program included the drilling of 12 production wells and 3 multilateral injection wells, as well as 10 work-over jobs over a period of four years.

ThermaPrimeis a drilling services contracting company specializing in geothermal wells and related services. As a member of The First Holdings Group of Companies and a fully-owned subsidiary of general contractor First Balfour, Inc., ThermaPrime is in the forefront of the low-carbon-footprint and regenerative agenda of the Group.

Throughoutthe drilling program, ThermaPrime was able to achieve a few notable feats – the drilling of the deepest “large hole” geothermal well in the country at 11,849 feet (3611 meters), and a speed record for geothermal drilling having been completed in under a month.

Thedrilling campaign produced more than 100 MW of additional steam production for the geothermal sites of PGPC in Laguna and Batangas, and in Tiwi, Albay. PGPC is looking to progress its other geothermal concessions and increase its renewable energy output to about 600 MW in line with the thrust of the government to pursue green and sustainable energy development.

Earlierthis year, SMInvestments Corp.(SMIC), the conglomerate that owns PGPC, announceda spending planfor Php 3 billion (approx. USD 53.8 million) annually over the next five years to build the company’s geothermal installed capacity to double the current capacity of the existing Mak-ban and Tiwi geothermal fields.
