The SPE Europe Energy GeoHackathon aims at educating and disseminating knowledge to all the participants on how Data Science applications can support Geothermal Energy Developments and drive the Energy Transition.

The event is organized by a diverse team of volunteers from different SPE Sections in Europe and from International Technical Sections moved by the desire to “make the Energy Transition happen” in a datafied and sustainable way.

Former editions of the SPE Europe Energy GeoHackathon have been highly successful, drawing the interest of more than 600 participants from more than 40 countries.

FORMAT:

3 weeks Bootcamps (October 2024):

A four-week bootcamp sessions on data science and geothermal energy will begin on October 21, 2024. Data scientists and industry experts will deliver weekly sessions to equip participants with the relevant technical knowledge to understand the challenge be ready for the Hackathon.

4 weeks Hackathon (November 2024 – December 2024):

THE CHALLENGE 

This year, the challenge for the SPE Europe GeoHackathon will be to use a dataset from Croatia. The aim is to use machine learning to predict reservoir properties for two new wells, using well and seismic data from 6 other wells. This information will then be the basis, to generate a geothermal field development plan, to generate electricity for a town of 50,000 people.
