HOSS™-VWP transforms difficult, hypersaline produced water into demineralized steam, clean water and recoverable mineral solids.

Demineralized steam
Mineral recovery
THE HOSS™-VWP PLATFORM
One integrated pathway.
Three valuable outcomes.
A modular thermal architecture that conditions difficult produced water, manages scaling within a controlled slurry, reuses vapor energy and recovers water from both product and solids-handling circuits.
Modular flash + vapor reuse + solids drying
VWPVersatile Water Processor
* “Any Water” feed flexibility means broad compatibility with produced, brackish, hypersaline and difficult industrial waters following feed analysis and appropriate conditioning. Automatic solids recovery concentrates salts, metals and potential rare-earth minerals; commercial REM recovery depends on feed chemistry and project-specific validation.
99.9%High-vapor-fraction saturated steam capability
240–1,110m³/day across current portable and fixed package ranges · approximately 1,500–7,000 bbl/day for oilfield reporting
>98%Historical operating availability reported across earlier deployments
Performance is application-specific and confirmed through water analysis, engineering review and field validation.
DESIGNED FOR REGIONAL DEPLOYMENT
Locally built.
Globally deployable.
Portable and fixed HOSS™ configurations bring together thermal recovery, water treatment and modular field integration for demanding operating environments.

Firm heat first.
Renewables together.
PWE’s preferred sustainability pathway is a managed HDR geothermal resource where geology and economics are proven—supported by Solar PV, wind and hybrid electrical systems where they strengthen the site energy balance.
PRIMARY PATHWAY · HDR GEOTHERMAL
Hot Dry Rock—now commonly developed as an Enhanced Geothermal System—can create a controlled subsurface heat-exchange pathway where naturally flowing geothermal reservoirs are unavailable. With appropriate reservoir characterization, reinjection and thermal management, it can provide long-duration heat without depending on sunshine or wind.
COMPLEMENTARY LOW-CARBON ENERGY
One integrated sustainability strategy.
Match the most practical resource to each site, then combine energy inputs to improve reliability and reduce fuel dependence.
01 / PREFERRED FIRM HEAT
HDR geothermal
Weather-independent thermal supplyHigher upfront exploration and drilling cost, balanced by continuous heat potential and low fuel exposure when the reservoir is proven and managed within sustainable limits.02 / MODULAR ELECTRICITY
Solar PV + electric
Strong regional solar resourceFast, modular deployment for pumps, controls and electric heating. Output follows daylight and benefits from grid support, storage or a firm thermal partner.03 / SITE-SPECIFIC POWER
Wind energy
Valuable where wind regimes qualifyCan diversify renewable supply and complement solar timing. Production remains variable and requires measured site data, grid support, storage or hybrid operation.ENERGY ECONOMICS
Compare capital with 24-hour useful output.
The customer’s main commercial measure is estimated cost per cubic metre processed. Barrel equivalents are provided only when required for oilfield reporting.
PRIMARY PROJECT METRICUSD / m³ processedOilfield conversion: 1 m³ = approximately 6.29 bbl
| Energy pathway | Installed CAPEX | Useful output over 24 hours | O&M / OPEX profile | Effect on USD / m³ |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HDR geothermal | Higher exploration, drilling and reservoir-development cost | Firm potentialDay and night when the resource is proven and managed | Pumping, monitoring, well maintenance and periodic workovers | Higher upfront capital spread across continuous thermal output |
| Solar PV + electric | Modular generation plus electrical conversion and any storage | Daylight-variableStorage, grid or firm heat required outside production hours | Cleaning, inspections, inverter replacement and storage upkeep | Low fuel exposure; firming and storage can increase delivered cost |
| Wind energy | Site studies, turbines, interconnection and any storage | Resource-variableHourly output follows the measured wind regime | Mechanical service, inspections and component replacement | Competitive at qualified sites; variability affects usable output |
| Hybrid system | Combined assets, controls and integration | Balanced profileResources are coordinated to reduce gaps and backup demand | Combined maintenance with optimized dispatch | Often the strongest reliability-cost balance after site modelling |
PWE planning framework: energy-supply hardware and installation may represent more than 70% of combined installed project CAPEX in selected concepts. The percentage and resulting USD/m³ are application-specific and will be published only after resource, duty, availability, CAPEX and O&M assumptions are validated.
Opportunity, not a resource claim: temperature, depth, rock stress, permeability, water chemistry, drilling economics and induced-seismicity controls must be confirmed for each location.
