Geology Internship

Description

Internship Overview

You won't be running coffee orders or shuffling paperwork this summer. At Fervo, interns are handed something real: a project of your own, scoped with your manager on day one and yours to drive for the full 12 weeks. You'll work side-by-side with the teams building the next generation of geothermal energy, tackling problems that genuinely move the business forward. At the end of the summer, you'll present your work to our executive leadership team, department leads, and fellow interns, sharing real results with a real audience. This is a real seat at the table — and a real shot at what comes next.

Position Description

Fervo Energy is developing next-generation geothermal power to deliver firm, carbon-free energy at scale, anchored by our flagship Cape Station development in Milford, Utah, one of the largest next-generation geothermal developments in the world.

As a Geology Intern, you'll support Fervo's geological modeling and operations workstreams, helping advance our geothermal energy development goals. You'll assist in compiling analogue and digital geological and geophysical datasets to inform three-dimensional conceptual models of geothermal reservoirs, contributing to acreage evaluation, prospect ranking, wellsite operations, and the development of Fervo's exploration and development strategy.

Requirements

Responsibilities

• •Analyze subsurface datasets (including well logs, seismic/microseismic, and pressure data) to inform acreage development strategy and operational decisions
• •Participate in active drilling and completions operations at the Cape Station development
• •Build skillsets in geoscience applications such as Petrel and LeapFrog
• •Provide recommendations to a broader team to influence future development

Required Qualifications

• •Rising Senior, Master's candidate wrapping up within the next year, or PhD candidate — we're building a pipeline toward full-time offers
• •Strong written and verbal communication skills, including comfort presenting to stakeholders and leadership
• •Eagerness to learn, take initiative, and adapt quickly to new challenges
• •Ability to work independently
• •Willingness and ability to collaborate in a remote working environment

Preferred Qualifications

• •Experience working with geothermal and/or oil and gas data (well logs, geophysical data)
• •Experience reviewing well lithology logs (mudlogs, strat columns, etc.)
• •Experience in mapping (structural or stratigraphic) on a basin-wide scale
• •Experience with operations or fieldwork
