Ok, I can do the first thing...
Code:
 awk '{ if($0 ~ /EQUILIBRIUM GEOMETRY LOCATED/) { while($0 !~ /^\S*$/ && getline) { print $0; } } }' filename.txt

However I dont understand what you mean by "each of the columns of text should be seperated"....by what ? tabs, spaces (justified ?), commas ?

Cheers...
