During 2017 WellPerform of Holte, Denmark, took part in the planning and execution of drilling the geothermal well Thisted-5 in northern Denmark. In October 2017, the well was completed and initially made into a production well to ensure sufficient cleanup.
During the summer of 2018 a well intervention was completed, and the well went into its final stage and was turned into an injection well. This was done by retrieving the production pump and installing a composite tie-back casing.
Thisted-5 was added to the geothermal plant in Thisted as a second injector, as the injection pressure had increased over the past in Thisted-3 and now started to become troublesome for the operational costs.
The well will be brought into the geothermal circuit of the Thisted plant as an injector at the end of September 2018.
