What Cubility does
Cubility AS, founded in 2005 and headquartered in Sandnes, Norway, designs and manufactures enclosed solid control and wastewater treatment equipment for the global drilling, mining, geothermal, HDD, and environmental services industries. Its core technology centers on a proprietary rotating filterbelt with micro-vibration and high air flow that achieves solids separation using only 10% of the G-forces of traditional shale shakers, avoiding fine generation and enabling fully enclosed operation under slight negative pressure. The product portfolio comprises MudCube (drilling solids control), PureCube (industrial wastewater treatment and dewatering, originally developed for aquaculture), and CubeBelt (continuous vacuum belt filtration). All units are engineered and manufactured at the Sandnes facility, which includes a test center with two fully equipped test bays.
The company operates a hardware-led business model generating primary revenue from equipment sales supplemented by recurring revenue from filterbelt replacements (100-250 hour lifecycle), spare parts, and service contracts. Pricing is quote-based and configuration-dependent, with multi-year service arrangements. Cubility sells through its Norway headquarters, three owned regional sales offices (Houston/Magnolia for North America, Moscow for Russia, and Santiago for Latin America in partnership with Norwegian Tunneling Network), and a global authorized distributor network spanning Australia, Singapore, Brazil, Colombia, Nigeria, India, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Ukraine/Greece/Macedonia/Bulgaria, and Chile. Notable enterprise customers include BOMCO/CNPC (24 units delivered in 2021 plus 10 in 2020), Maersk Drilling (first commercial installation 2012 on Maersk Giant), and Segar Polyar SA in Argentine mining.
Cubility is wholly owned by Techouse Group AS, a portfolio company of private equity firm Triton Partners (since 2014 at Cubility level; Techouse Group formed July 2023 by combining Techouse AS and Cubility AS, further expanded with Eureka Group AS acquisition in May 2024). In August 2025 Cubility itself acquired Mivanor to extend into magnetic water and sludge treatment, and in March 2026 leadership transitioned with Peter Nygaard Andersen appointed Managing Director while Kai Preben Sæveland moved to Group CFO of Techouse Group. The company holds ATEX/IECex Zone 1 certification for hazardous offshore environments and is GDPR-compliant.

Products and services
- MudCube Fully enclosed, lightweight solid control system for all types of drilling fluids that uses light vibration with high air flow through a rotating filterbelt to separate drilling fluids from drilled solids. Operates at only one-tenth of G-forces versus traditional shale shakers. Targets oil & gas drilling operators on offshore platforms and onshore operations needing safer enclosed solids control.
- CubeBelt Continuous vacuum belt filter enhanced by micro-vibration for separation, sludge thickening, and dewatering applications across various industrial segments including mining, construction, and wastewater treatment. Delivered as the underlying belt filtration platform for multiple Cubility solutions.
- PureCube Compact industrial wastewater treatment system combining high-frequency vibrations with high air flow through a rotating filterbelt, providing separation, sludge thickening, and dewatering capability. Originally developed for aquaculture applications and now marketed to mining, HDD, and other industrial sectors.
