Feasibility & concept design
Assessing site conditions, technical options and cost before committing capital, so the right solution is chosen the first time.
Services
Designed once.
Delivered for decades.
From first feasibility study to decades of operation, VIVENT delivers water, waste, fuels and carbon infrastructure end-to-end. Six service lines cover every stage of that lifecycle — engaged independently, or as a single integrated delivery model. Below, each service is broken down into what it does and the specific capabilities behind it.
- $1T+
- needed annually in global water infrastructure investment to meet demand
- 80%
- of a typical infrastructure asset's lifetime cost is spent on operations, not construction
- 100+
- countries now price or trade carbon in some form
- 3–5 yrs
- typical timeline from feasibility study to commercial operation
Services · 01
EPC
Engineering, Procurement & Construction — full project delivery from concept to commissioning. We take a solution from technical design through to a built, tested, and handed-over asset, managing every contractor and supplier in between.
Detailed engineering
Producing the engineering drawings, specifications and technical documentation a contractor can actually build from.
Procurement & construction management
Sourcing equipment and contractors, then managing construction to budget, schedule and specification.
Commissioning & handover
Testing and validating every system before it goes live, with full documentation handed to the operating team.
Services · 02
Project Advisory
Independent technical and commercial guidance for organisations structuring their own water or waste projects. We bring the same diligence we'd apply to our own capital to a customer's project, without requiring them to hand over the asset.
Technical due diligence
Independent assessment of a project's technical feasibility before an investor or operator commits.
Regulatory & compliance strategy
Mapping the permitting and regulatory pathway for a project before it becomes a delay risk.
Project structuring & feasibility studies
Testing the technical and commercial case for a project before detailed design begins.
Investment & funding advisory
Structuring the financing case and identifying capital sources for water and waste infrastructure projects.
Services · 03
Operations & Maintenance
Ongoing asset management that keeps recovery infrastructure performing at design capacity for the life of the asset. This is where most of the value of a well-designed system is actually realised — or lost, if it isn't run properly.
Asset & performance management
Day-to-day management of infrastructure to keep it running at design capacity.
Water-as-a-Service delivery
Delivering water outcomes as a contracted service, with VIVENT carrying the operating risk.
Resource recovery operations
Running the plant that turns waste and water streams into their intended recovered outputs.
Continuous monitoring & optimisation
Ongoing performance tuning so an asset keeps improving rather than slowly degrading.
Services · 04
Asset Ownership & Financing
Long-term capital deployment and ownership structures that de-risk projects for our customers. Where a customer doesn't want to carry the infrastructure on their own balance sheet, we structure ownership so they don't have to.
BOO / BOOT ownership structures
Build-Own-Operate and Build-Own-Operate-Transfer models that shift capital risk away from the customer.
Capital deployment & structuring
Structuring the capital stack — equity, debt and blended finance — behind an infrastructure asset.
Long-term offtake agreements
Contracted commitments to buy recovered water, energy, fuel or credits over the life of the asset.
Risk transfer & performance guarantees
Contractual guarantees that shift performance risk from the customer to VIVENT.
Services · 05
Carbon Sequestration
Developing and managing carbon removal solutions, run as a standalone service or alongside a water or waste asset — nature-based, technology-based, and hybrid approaches, all backed by full measurement and verification.
Nature-based solutions (afforestation, soil carbon, wetlands)
Carbon removal delivered through natural systems that also restore ecosystems.
Technology-based solutions (Enhanced Rock Weathering, biochar)
Engineered removal pathways that lock away carbon over the long term.
Hybrid nature-technology solutions
Combining natural and engineered pathways where that delivers a stronger removal outcome than either alone.
MRV & carbon credit origination
Measuring, verifying and structuring removal outcomes into saleable carbon credits.
Services · 06
Research & Innovation
Piloting and validating new recovery and decarbonisation technologies before they reach commercial scale. This is how the other five service lines keep improving — new methods get proven here before they're trusted on a live asset.
Technology piloting & trials
Testing new recovery and decarbonisation technology at pilot scale before committing to full build-out.
R&D partnerships with universities & technology providers
Co-developing next-generation solutions with the institutions and companies advancing the science.
Feasibility studies for emerging processes
Assessing whether an emerging technology is ready for commercial deployment on a specific site.
Performance benchmarking & validation
Testing new technology against established performance benchmarks before it's trusted at scale.
The Payoff
Why deliver with one partner.
Splitting design, construction, ownership and operations across different vendors creates gaps — in accountability, in incentives, and in who actually answers when something goes wrong. Running all six service lines under one roof closes those gaps.
Single point of accountability
One partner across design, build, ownership and operations — no finger-pointing between contractors when something needs fixing.
Faster time to operational
Established delivery playbooks and pre-qualified technology partners cut typical project timelines.
Reduced capital risk
Asset ownership and financing options mean customers don't have to carry full capital risk themselves.
Performance guarantees
Contracted performance commitments, not best-effort service — backed by risk transfer structures where it matters.
Full-lifecycle support
Support runs from feasibility study through decades of operation, not just the build.
Continuous improvement
Ongoing optimisation and R&D feed improvements back into every asset we operate, including yours.
Applied To Solutions
Applied to every solution pillar.
Every service line above is designed to support all four solution pillars — Water Systems, Waste Systems, Low-Carbon Fuels and Decarbonisation — whether engaged on a single solution or across an integrated platform.
EPC
Builds Water Systems, Waste Systems, Low-Carbon Fuels and Decarbonisation infrastructure alike.
Project Advisory
Structures the commercial case before deployment, across any of the four pillars.
Operations & Maintenance
Keeps every deployed solution performing at design capacity, whatever pillar it sits under.
Asset Ownership & Financing
Can own and finance any of the twelve solutions, standalone or combined into one platform.
Carbon Sequestration
Extends the Decarbonisation pillar into dedicated nature-based, technology-based and hybrid removal projects.
Research & Innovation
Pilots the next generation of Water, Waste and Low-Carbon Fuels technology before it's trusted at scale.
