The Department of Energy (DOE) is competitively seeking cost-shared applications for research and development efforts to enhance and sustain the domestic supply of natural gas. Technological advances will need to be made in order to produce the vast resources in the deep HTHP resource basins of the United States. This Announcement will be administered through the Office of Natural Gas at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL). NETL expects to support efforts that fit under DOE's Deep Trek Program, which focuses on developing advanced technologies that will operate in very deep (>20,000 feet) high temperature (>400 F), high pressure (>15,000 psi), hard rock, corrosive environments. The general objective of this Announcement is to develop new high temperature, high pressure drilling technologies that will aid the nation in meeting the increasing natural gas demands of the future. Technologies to economically access and produce from the deep (>20,000 feet) and/or high temperature (>400/degrees/ F) high pressures (>15,000 psi) caustic gas resources are included in this Announcement. The technologies and needs to drill and produce the deep horizons have been identified in the Deep Trek R D Planning Workshop held March 20-21, 2001 and by industry forums such as The Gulf of Mexico Shallow Water Deep Gas workshops. To achieve the objectives, the DOE/NETL, through the Office of Natural Gas, is requesting applications that fit under DOE's Deep Trek Program, which focuses on developing electronics which will operate in very deep (>20,000 feet) high temperature (>400 F), high pressure (>15,000 psi), hard rock, corrosive environments. Applications shall be submitted under one (1) of two (2) Areas of Interest. Area of Interest 1: Electronics Possible areas include but are not limited to high temperature electronic packaging and connectors, high temperature capacitors, improved scintillator materials, innovative electronic cooling technologies or other high temperature components not currently available. Any new electronic technologies proposed shall be compatible with currently applied or emerging technologies developed under DOE's drilling programs or other industry programs. Any new electronic technologies proposed shall be compatible with currently applied or emerging technologies developed under DOE's drilling programs or other industry programs. The overall goal for this Announcement should be to work towards the demonstration of the technology at a commercially scalable size. APPLICATIONS MUST BE SUBMITTED THROUGH GRANTS.GOV TO BE CONSIDERED FOR AWARD. THERE ARE SEVERAL ONE-TIME ACTIONS YOU MUST COMPLETE IN ORDER TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION THROUGH GRANTS.GOV. THIS PROCESS CAN TAKE UP TO 14 DAYS TO COMPLETE. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT ALL POTENTIAL APPLICANTS READ PAGE 2 OF THE FUNDING OPPORTUNITY MASTER ANNOUNEMENT BELOW FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON HOW TO BEGIN THE PROCESS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Questions relating to the registration process, system requirements, how an application form works, or the submittal process must be directed to Grants.gov at 1-800-518-4726 or [email protected].
