<strong>Exploration</strong>
<strong>Geothermal</strong> <strong>Exploration</strong><br />
<strong>Geothermal</strong> <strong>Exploration</strong> is the bridge between early-stage ideas for development and fully committed planning and start up. In the broadest<br />
sense, <strong>Geothermal</strong> <strong>Exploration</strong> involves proving the viability of geothermal energy as a practical means of generating power and/or heat<br />
in a particular location. As the knowledge produced through exploration is gathered, engineering plans can be created, construction costs<br />
and energy-producing potential can be assessed. Accurate information from the exploration stage is crucial to assessing not only the<br />
overall viability but the detailed physical challenges of drilling, the production expectations and costs.<br />
The exploration stage involves many different, inter-related disciplines relating to the earth’s geology, hydrology, geochemistry and<br />
geophysics.<br />

<strong>Mannvit</strong> Engineering<br />
<strong>Mannvit</strong> Engineering of Iceland was founded in 1963 and now employs<br />
a staff of approximately 400. The company provides a broad range of<br />
engineering and technical research services. Since the early seventies,<br />
<strong>Mannvit</strong> has been active in the area of renewable energy and has been<br />
involved in the development of most power plants in Iceland, both<br />
hydroelectric and geothermal. Services for these projects range from<br />
research and other preparatory work to complete design and construction<br />
management.<br />
The <strong>Mannvit</strong> website<br />
<strong>Mannvit</strong>’s corporate web site, www.mannvit.com contains further<br />
information and project examples for hydroelectric and geothermal power<br />
plants as well as contact information.<br />
