Global · Proprietary Upgrading Technology
Valoris Clean Energy delivers proprietary upgrading technology to heavy oil operators worldwide — converting atmospheric and vacuum residue into high-value synthetic crude at a fraction of conventional capital cost.
The Technology
Valoris technology processes heavy atmospheric and vacuum residue streams — material that Canadian operators currently burn as low-value fuel oil or discard at a discount. Our process converts this residue into higher-value synthetic crude at a capital cost no conventional solution can match.
The Market
Heavy oil producing regions on every continent face the same structural problem — residue streams they cannot afford to upgrade. Valoris technology solves this wherever heavy crude is produced.
Over three trillion barrels of heavy oil reserves exist globally — in Canada, Venezuela, the Middle East, Russia, and beyond. Every producing region generates residue streams that Valoris technology can upgrade profitably.
Valoris holds fully protected intellectual property structured for international deployment — enforceable across key jurisdictions and designed to protect our competitive advantage in every market we enter.
Valoris technology can be deployed as a licensed solution, joint venture, or turnkey installation — structured to match the regulatory and commercial environment of each target market worldwide.
Valoris units integrate directly into existing refinery and production infrastructure — no greenfield build required, dramatically shortening the path to first revenue for operators anywhere in the world.
Conventional upgrading costs $2–5B per unit — locking out the vast majority of the world's heavy oil operators. Valoris eliminates this barrier, making upgrading economically viable at any scale, in any market.
The vast majority of the world's heavy oil operators lack upgrading capability — not because the need isn't there, but because conventional solutions are priced out of reach. That is the market Valoris was built for.
Who We Serve
The major oil companies have engineering teams and existing upgrading assets. Our technology is designed for the operators who don't — companies that produce heavy crude but have been locked out of upgrading economics by capital requirements.
Established producers with heavy crude output seeking to capture more value from their existing resource base without billion-dollar capital commitments.
Growing producers across Canada, Latin America, the Middle East, and beyond — wherever heavy crude API gravity aligns with Valoris technology's feedstock requirements.
Facilities generating atmospheric and vacuum residue that is currently burned at low value or processed at a discount — turning a cost centre into a profit stream.
The Economics of Upgrading — Rethought
We are actively engaging with operators and partners worldwide. If you produce heavy crude or manage residue streams — anywhere in the world — we want to hear from you.
