This presentation will draw on research Dr. Schultz and his colleagues recently published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature in January 2025. This research uses state-of-the-art geophysical methods to improve our understanding of geothermal and volcanic activity.  

Dr. Schultz will highlight three groundbreaking surveys:  

1. Southern Washington Cascades – A high-resolution MT study helped explain why major volcanoes like Mount Rainier, Mount Adams, and Mount St. Helens sit where they do, even when some are unexpectedly off the main volcanic arc.  

2. Newberry Volcano, Oregon – A key site for geothermal research, Newberry’s subsurface was mapped using MT, gravity, and seismic data. The study identified the composition of the underground magma body and uncovered a potential geothermal resource on the volcano’s southern flank.  

3. Yellowstone Caldera – A new MT survey combined with advanced modeling has refined estimates of how much molten rock lies beneath Yellowstone, improving our understanding of the famous supervolcano’s activity.

By sharpening our view of the Earth’s interior, these studies challenge previous assessments used to predict geothermal potential—and help refine future exploration strategies for clean energy development."

Event Description:
Join us for a dynamic and insightful event exploring the future of geothermal energy at NOV’s Springett Technology Center. Gain exclusive access to their cutting-edge drilling rig and visit the closed-loop geothermal test well. Learn how Vallourec’s vacuum-insulated tubulars, featuring integrated fiber optics, play a critical role in advancing geothermal technology.
This event will include a detailed presentation from NOV on their groundbreaking system, followed by insights from Vallourec and presentations from leading closed-loop geothermal startups. Companies can showcase their innovative approaches to transform geothermal energy.
The day concludes with an open forum, fostering collaboration and discussions on testing methodologies to maximize the value of NOV’s geothermal well and overcome industry challenges. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with experts, network with peers, and explore the cutting edge of geothermal innovation.

A conference recap and also on tap for the meeting: 

• Progress updates on our focus areas of policy, educational outreach, and commercial development, and opportunities for YOU to contribute
• News on the test well drilling program. Nicole's HGGRC is contracted by the HSEO and in talks with stakeholders regarding drill sites on both Hawaii Island and Maui. 
• Discussion of direct use geothermal for heating water and cooling buildings
