Reservoirs

Optimizing for fluid dynamics in uncertain subsurface geologies is uniquely challenging. Terra has developed several systems to model and plan in these difficult settings. Our intelligent agents can optimize field surveys, well placements and monitoring strategies to improve performance and predictability.

Systems we Serve:

  • Geothermal Generation

  • Aquifer Management

  • Carbon/Hydrogen Storage

  • Natural Hydrogen Extraction

Critical Minerals

Each step in critical mineral development is a lengthy and costly process. Terra’s robust approaches to understanding and reducing subsurface uncertainty can drastically accelerate and improve resource development and operation, reducing costs and risk.

Tasks we Address:

  • Optimal Mine Design

  • Safety Validation

  • Resource Modeling

  • Production Optimization

Example: Intelligent measurement optimization improves wind-farm modeling and installed performance nearly 20% with no additional capital cost.

Renewable Energy

Installed performance of renewable power systems can depend on the array pattern within an uncertain field. Optimizing information gathering and installation sequences can improve power output and reduce maintenance costs without additional up-front capital costs.

Systems we Serve:

  • Wind Field Metrology

  • Turbine Layout Optimization

  • Solar Field Optimization

  • Predictive Maintenance
