Development of GeoRePORT





Meetings, Publications, and Presentations

The GeoRePORT team presented initial concepts at geothermal conferences in autumn 2014 (originally working title was 'GRRM'), and has been working on improvements to the protocol in collaboration with industry - both nationally and internationally - ever since. Relevant papers, presentations and webinars are listed below with the most recent at the top.

We love collaboration! Have ideas for partnering or improving GeoRePORT? Please - your experience and input help to improve GeoRePORT for all end users.
