Stag Energy Services Comments on Stormproof Qualities of Geothermal Energy

Affected by damage caused from Superstorm Sandy, many businesses are looking towards investing in geothermal energy. Stag Energy Services, providing assistance to energy industry companies, comments on the growth of this resource.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, December 10, 2012

According to a recent article from The New York Times the path of destruction caused by recent Superstorm Sandy "unearthed fuel tanks, ravaged cooling towers and battered air-conditioners" causing affected building and business owners to consider a new alternative for these scenarios--geothermal energy. Although not a leader in comparison to oil and gas usage, geothermal exploration has provided a great addition to America's energy resources. The article states, "Geothermal energy systems, common in countries like Iceland and China, use the constant temperature of the earth to heat and cool buildings." As such, Stag Energy Services--a company that assists many energy companies with the construction of oil wells--believes that this revelation could prove that geothermal drilling solutions are a possible energy backup for areas that are affected by storms or natural disasters.

Although Stag Energy Services is a company dedicated to providing high standard equipment and services to every stage of the drilling process, it is also a company that has assisted in the development of geothermal drilling. For example, Stag Energy Services has supplied equipment, construction services and more to international energy producer Halliburton--a notable company that has not only become iconic in its oil production, but also in its geothermal energy pursuits.

Although the underground access and lack of exposure to the elements of geothermal resources are elements that prevent damage from damage, such as storms, The New York Times explains that the cost of implementing such systems would require large amounts of money and construction. However, some officials state that retrofitting a building to this natural heating and cooling resource can quickly pay for itself in terms of eco-driven tax credits and overall energy costs.

James Mann, Operation Manager of Stag Energy Services comments, "Although the wake of Superstorm Sandy has caused many to quickly assess the benefits of geothermal energy, it is important for all parties to fully understand what it will actually require to set such systems up." As a company that provides a wealth of services to oil and gas drilling outfits, Stag Energy Services notes that the diversification of energy resource could prove most beneficial.

Mann concludes, "Stag Energy Services is committed to helping leaders and startups within the energy industry safely and effectively drill the wells that they pursue. At this point in time, geothermal energy is a relatively new concept, but one that is certainly welcomed in conjunction with the benefits provided by traditional oil and gas resources."
