A Sustainable Future Through Offshore Renewables
Ghyser is committed to driving profound change and innovation in our industry, with sustainability at the heart of our vision. Sustainability is no longer an afterthought, but the guiding principle that drives all our efforts. Our goal is for everyone to embrace our core values and join our mission to create profound change.
In addition to the production of renewable hydrogen, an important aspect of our mission is the restoration of our oceans through the release of oxygen. Some of the oxygen produced is returned to the ocean and improves the quality of marine life. Just as the ocean provides for us, we are determined to give back and create a sustainable cycle. We are committed to utilizing the earth's resources, regardless of their origin, and putting that energy back into the cycle by promoting green and environmentally friendly practices.
At the heart of Ghyser's vision is an unwavering commitment to promoting sustainable agriculture and supporting communities around the world. Our production process generates two invaluable by-products: nutrient-rich brine from seawater desalination and organic waste, including algae. These resources are carefully recycled to produce highly valuable agricultural inputs. The resulting combination of organic and brine-derived fertilizers not only increases crop yields and quality, but also drastically reduces the environmental impact of farming. In addition, our decentralized production model strengthens coastal regions with limited arable land and groundwater resources, enabling agricultural self-sufficiency.
Furthermore, we utilize the daily production of 10 million liters of freshwater to irrigate arid areas, facilitating desert reclamation, promoting biodiversity, and effectively combating the devastating consequences of desertification for local communities.
Our closed-loop resource recovery system not only drives progress in renewable energy, but also serves as a catalyst for sustainable development. This comprehensive approach strengthens food security, enhances environmental well-being and improves the overall quality of life for coastal populations. This seamless connection between industry and the environment embodies our overarching vision of clean technology that coexists harmoniously with nature.
We are determined to use our technology and abundant resources to bring about positive change for communities around the world. We also want to raise awareness in society and the industry of the critical importance of sustainability and serve as a role model for responsible practices. To achieve true environmental, economic and social sustainability by 2050, we have defined five pillars:
1. reusing existing infrastructure instead of decommissioning it to accelerate the transition.
2. using proven, rapidly deployable technologies.
3. innovate to improve the efficiency and profitability of green solutions
4. implement a circular economy approach to recycle all by-products
5. unlocking capacity for implementation on a global scale.
Ghyser offers a pragmatic solution focused on these key pillars. We envision a world in which humanity undergoes a paradigm shift towards true sustainability without waste.
By converting end of life offshore oil and gas rigs into multi-purpose floating renewable energy plants, we can install desalination and electrolysis systems on thousands of rigs worldwide. This allows us to produce zero-emission hydrogen from offshore wind, solar and wave energy at the scale required to achieve net zero emissions.
Ghyser's innovative electrolyzer efficiency improvements increase productivity and improve cost competitiveness. The monetization of all by-products generates revenue streams that ensure a positive return on investment.
Our goal is to demonstrate that by combining pragmatic solutions and innovation, we can repurpose existing infrastructure to accelerate the renewable energy revolution. This paradigm shift will enable humanity to achieve true sustainability in all dimensions by 2050.
Our Process
Pioneering Sustainable Innovation
At Ghyser, we are pioneering innovative technologies and methodologies to demonstrate that economic growth and environmental sustainability can go hand-in-hand. Our renewable energy process sustains ocean health while enabling the hydrogen economy.
Giving Oil Rigs Renewable Purpose Over 5,900 offshore oil and gas platforms are slated for decommissioning by 2030. This process carries an $80 billion price tag and generates millions of tons of carbon emissions. Ghyser transforms these rigs into sustainable hydrogen production hubs. Our solution outfits platforms with electrolyzers, desalination systems, renewables equipment, and storage tanks. In just 12-18 months, our modular conversion transforms aging infrastructure into green energy assets. Instead of costly disposal, oil rigs find new life fueling the renewable future.
1. Green Hydrogen Production
• We utilize high efficiency PEM electrolyzers powered by offshore wind, wave, and solar energy
• Desalinated seawater is split into hydrogen and oxygen
• Our electrolyzers add-on technology leverage a patent-pending efficiency enhancement to lower the cost of green hydrogen production
• This renewable hydrogen can displace fossil fuels across transportation, heating, and power generation
2. Green Oxygen
• For every kg of hydrogen produced, 8 kg of oxygen is created as a byproduct
• This green oxygen is used to replace industrial grey oxygen production, saving 10 tons of CO2 per ton replaced
• Additional oxygen is released to surface waters, increasing dissolved oxygen levels
• Higher oxygenation accelerates the breakdown of pollutants and revitalizes marine ecosystems
3. Freshwater
• Each rig produces around 10 million liters of fresh desalinated water daily
• This water can be used to irrigate nearby coastal agriculture or inland deserts via pipelineshe freshwater serves as a strategic reserve contributing to regional water security
• Access to abundant freshwater unlocks development potential for local communities
• The freshwater production is equivalent to the water consumption of 85,000 people
• This provides a new sustainable source of potable water in water-stressed regions
4. Brine Recycling
• The brine leftover from desalination contains valuable minerals and compounds
• We recover resources like magnesium, lithium, gallium through crystallization and extraction
• The brine is recycled into fertilizer products and freshwater using zero-liquid discharge technology
• This eliminates a waste stream while creating economic value and strategic reserves
Our Strategy

Leveraging Existing Infrastructure -
Unlocking Economies of Scale
Over 5,900 offshore oil and gas platforms worldwide are due for decommissioning by 2030.
Instead of dismantling these assets, we are converting these decommissioning liabilities into valuable renewable energy assets, saving significant emissions from dismantling and material disposal.
Reusing standing offshore platforms and infrastructure opens up huge economies of scale for green hydrogen production and ensures faster deployment
Decommissioning a single oil rig costs 10 to 25 million dollars and generates thousands of tons of carbon emissions
Our approach shortens timelines, lowers costs and reduces emissions compared to building renewable energy centers from scratch
The existing offshore oil and gas infrastructure represents strong, largely untapped potential for renewable energy.
Tapping into this vast global real estate of offshore oil and gas infrastructure is a key strategic advantage for green hydrogen production.
To meet the goals of the Paris Agreement and reduce net zero emissions by 2050, a rapid expansion of renewable energy is essential.
Utilizing existing plants and infrastructure may be the only way to achieve the climate targets within the required timeframe.
Donating Brine-Based Fertilizer:
• The brine from our desalination process contains valuable nutrients like magnesium and potassium
• We reformulate this into a premium organic fertilizer product and donate a portion to coastal communities
• This provides a high-efficiency, environmentally safe fertilizer to increase yields and food security
• Ghyser allocates 10% of all fertilizer production to humanitarian donations
Offshore locations - optimized for renewable energy generation
Our sophisticated models take into account renewable energy conditions, demand centers, infrastructure and more.
Ghyser offshore platforms offer efficient and sustainable benefits.
Offshore operations tap abundant clean energy resources while avoiding disruption to communities. Our strategic locations maximize production potential.
Floating offshore facilities are not subject to land use restrictions, regulations, permitting and community concerns and can be up and running quickly after conversion.
Our platforms are ideally positioned to take advantage of strong, consistent offshore winds. Mooring chains stabilize the turbines to take advantage of wave energy
The open ocean receives more consistent sunlight than land areas, which are subject to day/night cycles and weather fluctuations.
As a result, our optional offshore solar plants benefit from uniform solar radiation, which increases the capacity factors.
The location close to demand centers on the coast minimizes transmission losses.
Shorter transportation routes of hydrogen to end users reduce delivery costs and emissions.
We strategically deploy our drifting or fixed platforms to facilitate clean energy production and hydrogen transportation.
If the conditions of the plant change during its 30-year lifespan, the Ghyser platform can be relocated to maintain the optimal position.
This flexibility ensures maximum production of renewable energy as markets evolve.
Avoiding Waste:
• Our zero-liquid discharge approach recycles 100% of brine into fertilizer, minerals, and freshwater
• We prevent rig disposal emissions by giving infrastructure a second life
• Our process is designed to comprehensively eliminate or repurpose byproduct streams
