Drilling Evaluations for Geothermal Projects
Geological Data Collection & Analysis
We deploy teams of expert geologists to potential drilling sites to collect critical subsurface data:
-
Mudlogging – Analyzing sample cuttings from the drilling fluids to identify formations and lithological variations.
-
Gas Detection – Monitoring gases to assess geothermal potential. We provide traditional C1-C5, Isotubs, and Mass Spectrometer readings
-
Advanced Instrumentation – Use of high-resolution tools from the oil & gas industry for detailed analysis and reporting.
Macro Automated Photography (M.A.P.)
Documenting, preserving, and accurately describing your samples has been taken to the next level with Terra Guidance’s proprietary M.A.P. processing of sample photography. We capture 50 photos per sample to enhance data collection and support advanced mineralogical interpretation.
