• Contract from the Geological Service of North Rhine-Westphalia and contract from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology totalling around EUR 3.0 million

Oberhaching / Ascheberg, 27 January 2025 - Daldrup & Söhne AG (ISIN DE0007830572), a drilling technology and geothermal specialist, has been awarded a general contractor order by the Geological Service NRW, based in Krefeld. A research well is to be sunk in Krefeld-Girmesgath to a maximum depth of around 1,000 metres. The aim is to investigate the geothermal potential of Carboniferous limestones. The contract is part of the ‘Geothermal Energy Master Plan’ enacted by the state of North Rhine-Westphalia last year. The construction of the well site is currently underway. According to the planning, the drilling is to be carried out between February and May 2025.

Daldrup & Söhne AG is drilling an exploratory well (GeoLab-1) in the municipality of Grasellenbach, Hesse, for a consortium of research institutions led by the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). According to the client, the results of this exploratory drilling will provide evidence of the area's suitability for the construction and operation of an underground laboratory. The GeoLaB research infrastructure is intended to provide answers to fundamental questions regarding the development and use of crystalline reservoirs for geothermal energy. The work of constructing the drilling site has been completed. Drilling and measurement work is scheduled to begin in February 2025.

The scheduled order value for both projects is around EUR 3.0 million in total.
