Venture Building
Our Venture Building Team drives new growth by sourcing market-driven challenges and creating transformative solutions in collaboration with external partners, building on our foundation to expand our impact beyond core operations.
We target challenges that align with our core expertise, technology and high-performance compute (HPC) to accelerate time to market for new solutions.
Our current challenge focus area is energy but we are open to receiving those within the clean tech, climate tech and deep tech sectors that align with our core capabilities.
Upon development of minimum viable product/solution and market validation, we determine the most suitable pathway for scaling and commercialisation.
Geolucent
Active hyperspectral sensing that delivers site-calibrated 3D geointelligence, operating remotely in total darkness and with multi-platform deployment
Mining teams must make high impact decisions under tight time constraints and limited visibility, especially underground, and in areas of unsupported ground. Conventional tools can fall short: assays may arrive late, RGB images and spot instruments provide limited information for daily mine operations.
Geolucent is a developing innovation that addresses these shortcomings by delivering site-calibrated 3D geological intelligence that enables rapid, high confidence decision making. Designed to operate in complete darkness (24/7 underground setting or night pit scans), our prototype can be remotely controlled and mounted on multiple vehicle platforms for safer standoff operations.
Natural Hydrogen Exploration
Global rock, gas and water database, ML driven remote sensing workflows and geophysics combined with subsurface expertise to develop natural H2 generation models and play concepts to support efficient and effective natural H2 exploration.
Offshore geothermal
Leveraging existing data, expertise, equipment and technology from the geothermal and hydrocarbon industries to identify and develop offshore geothermal resources for power generation and the co-production of fresh water, green hydrogen and green ammonia along with the potential for CO2 drawdown, utilisation (efuels) and storage.
