GMK Energy has been awarded the “TR33 Region Geothermal Water Management Plan Project” tender managed by Zafer Development Agency with the support of the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Industry and Technology.

Related to this, the TR33 Region Geothermal Water Management Plan Project kick-off meeting was held on February 27, 2024 at Zafer Development Agency Headquarters. Participating in the meeting were the GMK Energy and Zafer Development Agency General Secretariat, Kütahya Provincial Coordination Office, Usak Provincial Coordination Office, Afyon Provincial Coordination Office, and Manisa Provincial Coordination Office officials.

Within the scope of this project, GMK Energy’s multidisciplinary team will carry out a basin-based evaluation of geothermal potential in the geothermal fields in the TR33 Region which consists of Afyonkarahisar, Kütahya, Manisa and Usak provinces. Additional studies that need to be carried out for a better management reservoir model and the economic activities that will occur will be determined, and province, district and field-based management model suggestions will be presented.

The aim of the studies is to maximize the utilization of geothermal resources in the region and to extract the most efficient reservoir management models in a sustainable way with this project. The data obtained from the field will be processed and transformed into strategies, projects, and action plans.

An inventory study will be conducted by holding focus group meetings in order to reveal the current status of geothermal fields in Afyonkarahisar, Kütahya, Manisa and U?ak provinces with the participation of Special Provincial Administrations, Investment Monitoring and Coordination Directorate (Y?KOB), relevant Municipalities, Universities, Chambers of Commerce and Industry, Non-Governmental Organizations, MTA and the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources’ relevant units. Important stakeholders in the city related to the geothermal sector will also be invited to focus group meetings.
