EPS1 well

Dataset in collection Episode: 1993 Stimulation Soultz-sous-Forêts

EPS‑1 was deepened and cored in 1990–1991 to study the granite reservoir. Despite strong deviation, coring from 930 to 2227 m produced valuable scientific data.

Geological sections from GeORG - Vendenheim

Dataset in collection Episode: Geoven geothermal project at Vendenheim

The GeORG project (2008–2012) produced a 3D geological model of the Upper Rhine Graben and a comprehensive geoscientific database, including deep‑structure maps, temperature models, and geological cross‑sections accessible online. Several GeORG products around the Vendenheim geothermal site were extracted from the map viewer.
