EAPOSYS  Partners with Halliburton to Accelerate the Deployment of Advanced Geothermal Systems


By: Robert Buluma

Biel/Bienne, Switzerland – October 10th, 2025 The race toward a sustainable energy future just got hotter. EAPOSYS SA, a Swiss geothermal innovation company, has joined forces with Halliburton (NYSE: HAL) to fast-track the deployment of its groundbreaking Advanced Geothermal Systems (AGS).

Under the newly signed agreement, Halliburton will conduct a subsurface feasibility study to evaluate and optimize the scalability of EAPOSYS’s patented closed-loop geothermal architecture. This collaboration will refine well designs, assess stratigraphic conditions, and minimize drilling risks  paving the way for the industrial-scale rollout of clean, predictable geothermal energy.

“EAPOSYS SA has developed an innovative, patented, closed-loop architecture to deploy AGS anywhere in the world,” said Naomi Vouillamoz, CEO and co-founder of EAPOSYS. “AGS offers essential qualities for an affordable and sustainable energy future with unique advantages.”

Unpacking the Power of EAPOSYS AGS

EAPOSYS’s Advanced Geothermal Systems are redefining what’s possible in renewable energy. Unlike traditional geothermal setups, the closed-loop system operates without fluid exchange or stimulation, significantly reducing environmental impact while enhancing operational predictability.

Here’s what makes EAPOSYS AGS stand out:

  • 🔹 Predictability: Precise energy output management using proven oil and gas technologies.
  • 🔹 Durability: Long-term, stable energy generation with minimal maintenance.
  • 🔹 Efficiency: Customizable designs, minimal land footprint, and zero pumping power loss thanks to the thermosiphon effect.
  • 🔹 Environmental Responsibility: Reduced water use and no subsurface contamination risks.

These attributes make EAPOSYS AGS ideal for district heating, industrial heat supply (including greenhouses, food processing, and manufacturing), and combined heat-and-power systems using Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technologies.

A Global Rollout Strategy: The EAPOLAB Initiative

To scale its geothermal vision, EAPOSYS is deploying AGS through EAPOLABs — national or regional consortiums bringing together engineering firms, utilities, and local authorities.

The first such platform, SwissDGS, was established in Zurich in late 2024 in partnership with Basler & Hofmann and Amberg Group. Through EAPOLABs, EAPOSYS ensures that every project aligns with local needs while maintaining world-class engineering and environmental standards.

EAPOSYS has also expanded internationally with EAPOSYS Canada, founded in Calgary, Alberta, during Q4 2024 — signaling a bold step into North American geothermal markets.

“Energy is at the core of every human society. Guarantee of supply, sustainability, affordability, and energy as a common good is an essential ethical attribute which EAPOSYS AGS strives to contribute to,” added Vouillamoz.

Zanskar’s Big Blind: First Blind Geothermal Discovery in 30 Years

Big Blind: The Geothermal Discovery That Changes Everything By: Robert Buluma Utah startup  Zanskar Geothermal quietly dropped one of the most important announcements in American energy in decades. They discovered and confirmed “Big Blind” ,the first completely blind, commercial-grade geothermal system found in the United States in over thirty years. Let that sink in. No hot springs.   No fumaroles.   No steaming ground.   No prior wells.   Zero surface expression whatsoever. Just desert, sagebrush, and – 7,000 feet below,  a reservoir hot enough and permeable enough to support gigawatt-scale power production. This isn’t incremental progress. This is a paradigm breaker. Why “Blind” Discoveries Matter So Much For the last 40 years, geothermal development in the U.S. has been geographically handcuffed. You could only build plants where nature advertised the resource on the surface – think Yellowstone, The Geysers, or Imperial Valley. Ever...
