Mechanical & Pressure Piping

From field verification and as-built development to detailed engineering and commissioning support, we help clients implement practical mechanical solutions that integrate safely and efficiently into existing operations.

Facility Piping Systems

We provide pressure piping engineering for new installations and modifications to existing systems. Our experience includes natural gas, oil, utilities, and process piping applications. Services include piping layouts, 3D modeling, PFDs, P&IDs, isometrics, material specifications, and authenticated engineering packages.

Rotating Equipment

We support the selection, evaluation, and integration of pumps, compressors, fans, and blowers into industrial facilities. Through hydraulic and system analysis, we help ensure equipment performance aligns with operational requirements while maintaining compatibility with existing process and piping systems.

Static Equipment Integration

We provide engineering support for pressure vessels, heat exchangers, separators, filters, and other static equipment. Our capabilities include equipment specification development, vendor package review, replacement projects, and integration of new equipment into existing facilities and process systems.

Brownfield Facility Modifications

Existing facilities require solutions that work within operational, physical, and regulatory constraints. We support facility upgrades, equipment replacements, capacity expansions, and process modifications by developing practical engineering solutions that integrate with existing infrastructure. Our experience includes field verification, as-built development, tie-in design, and support during construction and commissioning.

Industrial Power & Electrical Systems

We provide engineering services for low-voltage power distribution systems up to 600 V, including switchgear, motor control centres, transformers, distribution panels, protective devices, and associated infrastructure. Our experience includes new installations, system expansions, and upgrades to existing facilities.

Power System Studies & Protection

Reliable electrical systems depend on a thorough understanding of system performance and fault response. We perform load flow, short circuit, arc flash, protection coordination, harmonic, and power quality studies to support safe, reliable, and efficient facility operation.

Electrical Infrastructure

We provide engineering support for the electrical systems that enable safe and reliable facility operation, including grounding, heat tracing, lighting, cable routing, cable tray systems, area classification reviews, electrical equipment layouts, metering, SCADA integration, and backup power systems.

Industrial Power Distribution

We provide engineering services for low-voltage power distribution systems up to 600 V, including switchgear, motor control centres, transformers, distribution panels, protective devices, and associated infrastructure. Our experience includes new installations, system expansions, and upgrades to existing facilities.

Brownfield Electrical Upgrades

Modifying electrical systems within operating facilities requires careful integration with existing infrastructure and operational requirements. We support facility upgrades, equipment replacements, capacity expansions, and modernization projects through detailed engineering, field verification, construction support, and commissioning assistance.

Instrumentation and Controls

From advanced process instrumentation and automation systems to functional safety and supervisory control platforms, we help clients gain greater visibility, enhance operational reliability, and optimize performance through intelligent, data-driven control systems.

Process Instrumentation

Accurate measurement is fundamental to safe and efficient facility operation. We support the specification, selection, and integration of process instrumentation including pressure, temperature, flow, level, and analytical measurement systems for industrial applications.

Automation & Control Systems

We provide engineering support for PLC and DCS based control systems that monitor and manage industrial processes. Our experience includes control system upgrades, system expansions, equipment integration, and automation solutions that improve operational performance and reliability.

SCADA & Operator Interfaces

Effective monitoring and control depend on clear access to operational information. We develop and integrate SCADA and HMI solutions that provide operators with real-time visibility into process conditions, equipment status, alarms, and system performance.

Functional Safety

We support functional safety initiatives through the development and implementation of safety instrumented functions and related control strategies. Our services help clients reduce operational risk while supporting compliance with applicable safety and reliability requirements.

Drafting & 3D Modeling

From developing accurate facility documentation to creating detailed design models and construction drawings, we help clients maintain reliable engineering information and support informed project execution.

3D Facility Modeling

We develop detailed 3D models of piping systems, equipment, and facility infrastructure to support design development, constructability reviews, and project execution.

As-Built Documentation

Accurate facility information is essential for future projects and operational decision-making. We develop and update as-built drawings using existing documentation, field verification, and site walkdowns to ensure facility records reflect current conditions.

Engineering Drawings

We prepare the engineering drawings and documentation required to support facility modifications and capital projects, including layouts, general arrangements, isometrics, equipment installation details, and discipline-specific design packages.

Closed-Loop Quality Control

Adherence to strict quality management system protocols. Every engineering deliverable undergoes rigorous, independent cross-checking and color-coded markup verification to eliminate technical translation errors prior to final sign-off.
