EAPOSYS and Halliburton Unite to Supercharge the Future of Advanced Geothermal Systems

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.

About EAPOSYS SA

Founded in 2017 in Biel/Bienne, Switzerland, EAPOSYS is pioneering deep geothermal innovation through closed-loop Advanced Geothermal Systems. The company holds multiple patents and continues to expand its EAPOLAB network worldwide, promoting clean, reliable, and scalable geothermal energy for communities and industries.

Driving the UK Toward Net Zero: Chris Sladen on Geothermal’s Untapped Potential

Alphaxioms, we talked to Chris Sladen about his involvement in geothermal both in the UK, and globally By: Robert Buluma Chris, please begin by explaining a little about yourself, and why you have a passion for geothermal? I have spent over 45 years involved in energy. Following undergraduate studies in geology at Southampton University, and a PhD in sedimentology at Reading University, I joined the energy sector in Aberdeen in 1980. It was a fascinating era when it seemed like at least one giant oil & gas field was discovered offshore every month; the wealth creation for the UK was gigantic. I got to see so much geology and rocks - my true passion. I moved to China in late 1983; not today’s China, this was over 40 years ago, a country closed for decades and embarking on an open-door policy, in part to bring both investment and technology. I became very interested in energy trends, energy politics, and new geography created by changing politics leading to opportunities for ene...

Kenya’s Energy Crossroads: Gulf Energy Takes Over Tullow Oil in Turkana’s Geothermal-Rich Fields

Gulf Energy Takes Over Tullow Oil’s Turkana Fields – Oil Drilling to Overlap a Geothermal Hotspot By: Robert Buluma In a landmark energy shift for Kenya, British explorer Tullow Oil has officially exited the country after 14 years , selling its Turkana operations to Gulf Energy in a deal worth Ksh.16 billion (USD 120 million). The transition marks the end of Tullow's chapter in Kenya and the beginning of a new phase that could reshape not only oil production but geothermal exploration as well. The takeover grants Gulf Energy full control of the Turkana oil project , situated in a geologically active zone that also happens to host significant geothermal potential. Beneath Turkana’s arid landscapes, volcanic systems create natural heat reservoirs turning the region into a rare frontier where oil and geothermal energy converge. Tullow Oil first entered Kenya in 2010, striking the Ngamia-1 discovery well in 2012, which ignited hopes of the countr...

Unlocking Geothermal Power: Subsurface Secrets of Mount Erciyes Revealed”

Mount Erciyes: A Hidden Geothermal Treasure Beneath Cappadocia By: Robert Buluma Beneath the snow-capped slopes of Mount Erciyes , central Turkey’s highest peak, lies more than just volcanic history it harbors the promise of geothermal energy . A new study published in the Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research has mapped the subsurface of Erciyes using three-dimensional magnetotelluric (MT) imaging , revealing zones of high electrical conductivity that point to heat, fluids, and possible magma bodies deep underground. Cracking the Code Beneath the Mountain Researchers led by S.B. Tank used advanced MT techniques to peer beneath Erciyes and its surroundings. Their results uncovered conductivity anomalies regions where electricity flows more easily due to the presence of saline fluids, hot water, or partially molten rock . For geothermal experts, these anomalies are gold. They act as subsurface fingerprints of geothermal reservoirs , highlighting where heat ...

INTERVIEW, Geretsried and Beyond: Eavor’s Blueprint for Reliable, Sustainable Energy

Robert Buluma : Alphaxioms Responses were provided by Jeanine Vany, Executive Vice-President of Corporate Affairs, Eavor . Can you explain the key technological advancements in the latest iteration of the Eavor-Loop™ system? We have made a number of technological advancements at our project in Geretsried Germany . This includes innovation and learning resulting in dramatic improvements in our drilling performance and we’re proud to talk about our technology. For example, Eavor recently announced successful implementation of our in-house AMR (active magnetic ranging) tool which makes drilling more accurate and efficient. Eavor-Link™ AMR uses magnetic ranging while drilling to maintain constant alignment as it drills two wells at approximately 100 metres apart before they are intersected to create a continuous geothermal loop, which is then sealed with Eavor’s proprietary Rock-Pipe™ formula. With real-time data transmission between downhole sensors, the technology ensures tighter bo...
