Hunting enters UK geothermal market with Eden Project contract

Upstream services company Hunting is providing engineering, manufacturing and logistics expertise to support the Eden Geothermal Project, in its first foray into the growing market.

Working with EGS Energy and Bestec UK, work is underway to build the first phase of a geothermal plant at the Eden Project in Cornwall, using underground granite to produce heat and power for the site’s biomes, offices and nursery greenhouses.

Hunting, historically an oilfield services provider, has project managed and transported 20,000 feet of casing to the Eden Geothermal site.
