Introducing OceanWell

Modular, subsea water farms

OceanWell’s technology harvests the natural hydrostatic pressure found at depths of 400 meters below sea level to drive the reverse osmosis process. This method reduces energy requirements by up to 40% compared to a state of the art land-based desalination system. The system does not use any chemicals and does not produce a strong brine outfall, minimizing ecological disruption and preventing any harm to marine life through its LifeSafeTM circulation system.

Gallons per day per pod

Each Pod has a daily production capacity of 1 million gallons (4,000m3) of high quality fresh water.

Water farms have unlimited capacity

The modularity of the Pods enables us to scale each project in line with demand.

Outfall Riser

Unlimited free pressure means our outfall salinity is low and environmentally benign. We disperse it through risers into deep water currents, ensuring it diffuses to ambient salinity rapidly.

Deep-sea desalination is on the cusp of providing a source of clean water from the Caribbean to the Emirates
LA Times
A new deep-sea desalination technology is undergoing testing in Southern California. Water managers hope it will offer an economical and environmentally friendly way of tapping the Pacific Ocean for fresh water. The CEO of the company that developed the technology calls it a moonshot to revolutionize how California — and the world — can transform seawater into drinking water. If the system proves viable, the company plans to build what it calls a water farm anchored to the ocean floor several miles off the coast of Malibu. Californians could be drinking water tapped from the Pacific Ocean off Malibu several years from now — that is, if a company’s new desalination technology proves viable.

An experimental technology now in testing holds the promise of revolutionizing California's depleted water supply. California spends billions to store water, pump water and recycle water. But even with climate change bearing down, one strategy is a tougher sell: desalinating water and pulling it from the sea. There are roughly a dozen desalination plants operating in California, including the massive Carlsbad plant at San Diego. But approval of new plants is typically met with fierce opposition from many environmental groups.

How Deep Sea Water is Now Drinkable. Freshwater may soon flow from the deep sea to drought-stricken coastal cities. A handful of companies are betting that crushing deep sea pressures can replace the energy-hungry pumps and toxic chemicals that are an inconvenient truth of desalination.

Despite the recognition of water tech as a promising investment for addressing climate challenges, the sector has not attracted substantial funding. Water’s ubiquity might be its own worst enemy. Why worry about something that is usually so widely available? But in reality, global freshwater demand could soon outstrip supply by at least 40% by 2030, according to the UN.
