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.

"Steam, Scandals, and Stalled Megawatts: KenGen’s Court Battle Over Olkaria VII Consultancy"

Power, Politics, and Procurement: Inside KenGen’s Legal Battle Over Olkaria VII Geothermal Consultancy By  Robert Buluma In a dramatic twist that’s shaken Kenya’s energy sector, the Kenya Electricity Generating Company (KenGen) is locked in a legal showdown over the consultancy tender for its highly anticipated Olkaria VII geothermal power plant. The project, aimed at injecting 80 megawatts of clean energy into the national grid, now faces turbulence—not from the underground steam chambers of Hell’s Gate, but from boardrooms and courtrooms. 🔍 What’s the Fuss About? At the heart of this high-stakes battle is a €18.16 million consultancy tender awarded to Italy’s ELC Electroconsult SPA . The catch? Their bid was over Sh200 million higher than that of the next technically qualified firm. The Public Procurement Administrative Review Board (PPARB), Kenya’s watchdog for public tenders, wasn’t impressed. In a June 2025 ruling, PPARB annulled the award, citing procedural irregularities, ...
