Geothermal Assessments
Understanding your land, above and below.
Permit Support
Geothermal Drilling requires provincial permits. We have helped many in the current industry to obtain their permits.
Site Visits
Our team attends sites on behalf of drillers and owners to discuss issues, to take samples, to monitor progress in geothermal drilling.
Field Thermal Conductivity Test
Before one designs a geothermal system, it is important to characterize the subsurface thermal response of soil, water and rock. The thermal conductivity test may be thought of as heating the soil using a known heating source to determine how quickly the soil responds.
Reporting
EAL will prepare thermal conductivity test reports for clients.
