Abstract: Geothermal energy has drawn great attention thanks to its wide application, good stability, high application coefficient and environmental-friendliness. Direct geothermal application worldwide has risen rapidly in the past decade. The installed capacity of direct geothermal application and annual thermal consumption grew 122 percent and 141 percent separately. China has ranked itself as No.1 in the world in this area for long time. However, geothermal power growth has been sluggish, only 39 percent in the decade, owing to the limitations of high-temperature geothermal resources and economic feasibility. The technology is mature for direct geothermal application and high-temperature geothermal power generation, but the technology for hot dry rock development and application is still under the experimental and demonstrative stage. Based on the current conditions of geothermal development both inside and outside China and analysis of the future development trends, this paper focuses on the geothermal development strategies of the oil companies and put forth a series of measures to be taken by the oil companies in the energy transition period. They should take the favorable opportunities that the State attaches great importance to the geothermal industry, spares no efforts for promotion of energy structural adjustment and make active response to climatic changes and treatment of atmospheric pollution. The oil companies should also take advantages of resources, talents, technology, equipment and regional positions to benefit one another for harmonious development, with a reasonable layout of geothermal development and a powerful and full geothermal industrial chain. It is necessary to accelerate construction of the key geothermal laboratory, foster the specialized talents and development high-quality geothermal industry so that thermal energy can play an important role in replacement of energy and improvement of quality and efficiency.

摘要： 地热能因用途广泛、稳定性好、利用系数高、清洁环保等特点，一直受到广泛的关注和重视。10年来，全球地热直接利用快速增长，地热直接利用装机容量和年利用热量分别增长122%和141%，中国长期保持世界第一。受高温地热资源和经济性局限，地热发电增长缓慢，10年来增长39%。地热直接利用和高温地热发电技术成熟，干热岩开发利用技术仍处于试验示范阶段。基于国内外地热发展现状及未来发展趋势分析，重点探讨了石油公司发展地热的应对策略，提出了在能源变革时期，石油公司要抓住国家高度重视地热产业、大力推进能源结构调整、积极应对气候变化和大气污染治理的有利时机，充分发挥资源、人才、技术、装备和区位优势，优势互补，协同发展，做好地热发展布局，做大做强地热全产业链。要加快建设地热重点实验室，培养专业化人才，高质量发展地热产业，在实现能源替代和提质增效中发挥重要作用。
