Establishing a business unit in the Netherlands, Danish WellPerform aims to further strengthen its position in the geothermal market in both the Netherlands and continental Europe.

Danish well management, engineering and subsurface consultancy  WellPerform, has announced the incorporation of WellPerform BV, headquartered in Heerhugowaard, the Netherlands.

WellPerform has been involved in the geothermal industry since 2013 and has supported projects in the Netherlands since 2017 with a focus on well planning, well interventions and integrity restoration projects. With a strong global experience and a wide range of specialist services within well engineering, geology, geophysics, petrophysics and project management, WellPerform is ready to fully engage in the Dutch market.

“We are very pleased to announce the incorporation of WellPerform BV to enhance the level of service to our existing Dutch Clients and to further expand our activities in the Netherlands. While we have a long history of supporting projects in the Netherlands from our headquarters in Copenhagen, we recognise the future growth potential in the Dutch geothermal market. By establishing WellPerform BV, we plan to be part of that growth by bringing local Dutch staff and know-how into the existing WellPerform technical and project management portfolio.” says Søren Lundgren Jensen, Managing Director at WellPerform.

WellPerform has also provided geothermal project services, including well engineering, subsurface resource screening, licence reporting and due diligence to a range of Clients in Europe and the United States.

WellPerform was also responsible for successful delivery of the last geothermal well drilled in Denmark, Thisted-5 and provided integrated well delivery from target identification, permitting, engineering, tendering, site management and restoration. In addition, the Danish Geothermal Drilling Guarantee Scheme and Best-practice Guidelines for the Danish Energy Agency have also been developed by WellPerform.

Niels Frinks has been appointed Director of WellPerform BV and will lead the expansion in the Dutch market, with which he is very familiar. He adds “I have known WellPerform for several years and I am excited to join this growing company at this particular time where the green transition is high on the agenda. I am confident that we can provide quality engineering and services to our expanding client base in the Netherlands.”
