What Eftech International does

Eftech International is a private industrial services company founded in 2001 in Malaysia and expanded into Australia in 2014 with the incorporation of Eftech International Australia Pty Ltd and Eftech Drilling Solutions in Perth. The company delivers pre-commissioning, commissioning, maintenance and shutdown services, dry deluge testing, and specialist directional drilling to enterprise clients in oil and gas, energy, mining, infrastructure, petrochemicals, power and water. Named enterprise customers include INPEX (Ichthys LNG), Albemarle/MARBL Lithium (Kemerton), Civmec, and the WestConnex M8 tunnel project, with field operations delivered from offices in Perth, Adelaide, Kuala Lumpur, and Johor Bahru and a stated footprint across nine countries. Leadership is concentrated in founder-controlled management under Group CEO and Executive Chairman Dato Mahathir Samat, with Andrew Manning as Managing Director of the Australian entity.

The company's core technology stack is centered on its proprietary Asset Integrity Management System (AIMS), developed in 2015, which converts manual engineering drawings, schedules and budgets into digitized work-packages for inspection, maintenance and testing activities. Eftech holds the Australian market position for the Dry-Flo water-less deluge testing technology under a partnership with Paradigm Flow Services, enabling commissioning of fire suppression systems without water usage or damage. Its drilling division provides measurement-while-drilling (MWD), logging-while-drilling (LWD), logging-while-tripping (LWT) tools and drilling optimization equipment. The company claims the largest fleet of cryogenic and nitrogen membrane equipment in Australia, including a 360,000 scf/hr LN2 nitrogen pump that is the largest offshore unit in the country. ISO 9001:2015 accreditation and NATA-certified mobile testing facilities underpin its quality and compliance position.

Eftech operates a project-based professional services model, with contracts negotiated on a project-by-project basis for large enterprise clients. Revenue streams span pre-commissioning (nitrogen purging, helium leak testing, valve services, flange management, HP water jetting), full commissioning, maintenance and shutdown turnaround services, Dry-Flo deluge testing, and directional drilling services through its Eftech Drilling Solutions sub-brand. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales with multi-disciplined teams deployed to client sites. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, the company has not raised external funding, and ownership remains with Eftech Group as the parent entity.
