Creating Steam + Reducing Carbon Footprint

Leaders in Change Through New Technology

HipVap is an innovative produced water steam generation technology that brings game changing opportunities for SAGD producers, reductions in costs and GHG emissions to brownfield or greenfield projects. Our core HipVap offering is designed for brownfield CPF operations looking to increase steam capacity. We offer a full suite of bolt-on options for any operation including small and large scale, well pad or CPF based, steam generation.

HipVap technology eliminates the need for conventional SAGD water treatment processes, including produced water cooling, de-oiling and boiler feed water treatment systems, generating steam directly from produced water.

HipVap’s 3-inch tube commercial-scale demonstration project is taking place at Strathcona’s Lindbergh SAGD facility with the support of grant funding from both Alberta Innovates and Clean Resource Innovation Network (CRIN).
