engineering

Engineering applied to the energy sector encompasses the design, analysis, fabrication, operation, and optimization of systems and equipment. It integrates disciplines such as mechanical, chemical, electrical, civil, and process engineering to ensure safety, efficiency, and performance.

Its role is fundamental in projects, operations, integrity, and infrastructure modernization. Globally, engineering advances toward digitalized, automated, and sustainable solutions, with strong adoption in the U.S. and Europe, and sustained growth in LATAM to modernize facilities and meet international standards.
