ThermaPrime Drilling Corp. has completed this month the drilling program involving a total of 12 production wells and 3 multilateral injection wells for Philippine Geothermal Production Co. Inc. (PGPC).

The parties said the whole campaign produced more than 100 megawatts (MW) of additional steam production for PGPC from its geothermal steam fields in Laguna, Batangas and in Tiwi, Albay.

ThermaPrime added the wells were carried out in 10 work-over jobs in four years. One of the drilled wells in the Makiling-Banahaw area is by far the country’s deepest for large hole with a depth of 11,849 feet and holds a speed record for geothermal drilling which has been completed in under a month.
