Iceland Drilling Company signs its biggest agreement to date on geothermal drilling in the Azores
Iceland Drilling (UK) Ltd, a subsidiary of the Icelandic firm Jarðboranir hf., has signed a contract with two Azorean energy companies, Sogeo and GeoTerceira, for drilling exploration and production holes at high-temperature fields in the Azores Islands. The purpose of these holes is to generate electricity, and the Iceland Drilling agreement is by far the largest of this sort that has ever been concluded for the region involved. The agreement entails two interrelated projects for Sogeo and Geoterceira, both to be carried out on the Azorean islands of São Miguel and Terceira. In total, the agreement is worth up to ISK 1.8 billion [USD 15 million / EUR 12 million, with due reservations as to fluctuating exchange rates]. Most of the energy is expected to be used for electricity production for the islands.

Orkuveita Reykjavíkur and Jarðboranir sign the largest ever drilling contract in Iceland - electricity production from geothermal sources increased by more than 40%
Today, a geothermal drilling contract in the Hengill area was signed between Orkuveita Reykjavíkur and Jarðboranir hf. This is the largest contract of its kind in Iceland as well as being the most extensive drilling project ever undertaken in this country and Orkuveita’s largest competitive tender for a geothermal project so far.
A huge increase in demand has caused the production of electricity in domestic geothermal plants to rise by more than 100% since the year 2005; with production reaching almost 3,600 GWh last year. The new drilling initiated by OR is expected to increase production by a further 40%.
