Invena

What Invena does

Invena Corporation is a privately held engineering and manufacturing firm founded in 1998 and headquartered in Eureka, Kansas. The company operates as a design-build manufacturer and custom engineering services provider, serving Fortune 500 industrial companies primarily in oil and gas, energy and renewables, aerospace and defense, chemicals, and agriculture. Its customer base spans over 20 named Fortune 500 logos including Halliburton, GE Renewable Energy, Vestas, Triumph Group, Cargill, and USDA, with claimed reach to customers in over 90 countries across 10 countries of documented project execution.

Invena's product portfolio consists of specialized industrial equipment built for extreme-environment applications, including computerized additive metering systems with solid-state flowmeters, subsea coiled tubing connectors certified to API Specification PR-2, DNV 2.7-1-certified offshore hydraulic powerpacks, ultra low-noise National Instruments-based data acquisition systems, and ruggedized WiFi hotspots rated for -40°F to 120°F operation. The company also offers a reverse engineering service line for obsolete or damaged equipment, including helium plants, hydro-excavator vessels, and diesel fuel purifiers. Revenue is split approximately 30% design services, 40% custom manufacturing, and 30% support, testing, certification, and field services, with pricing conducted on a project-by-project basis (EXW shipping point) via direct sales.

The company is led by a five-person leadership team (President Matt Wilson, VP Julie Richardson, Manufacturing Manager Craig Olson, Personnel/QHSE Cammie Wilson, Sales Laromy Stratton) and operates from a single rural Kansas facility. Go-to-market is sales-led and consultative, driven by direct outreach, word-of-mouth, and 25+ years of reputation. The company holds one patent and has no disclosed institutional investment or public funding history. A notable resilience milestone occurred on June 26, 2021, when an EF3 tornado damaged five buildings but operations resumed within two weeks.

Direct peers

• Forum Energy Technologies: Houston-based manufacturer of oilfield equipment and downhole tools, including subsea connectors, drilling components, and specialty production equipment. Directly comparable custom-engineered equipment for oil & gas applications served by Invena.
• Dril-Quip: Specializes in subsea wellhead equipment, connectors, and pressure-control systems used by offshore operators — the same product category as Invena's API PR-2 subsea coiled tubing connector project for OneSubsea.
• Proserv: Independent provider of bespoke subsea and topside equipment, controls, and field services to oil & gas operators. Closely comparable hybrid engineering, manufacturing, and lifecycle-support business model.
• Flowserve Corporation: Major manufacturer of pumps, valves, seals, and flow-control equipment for oil & gas, chemical, and power industries. Comparable in industrial fluid handling and pressure-rated equipment manufacturing to Invena's metering and valve work.
• Oceaneering International: Provides engineered products and field services for offshore oil & gas, including subsea tooling, intervention systems, and remote-operated equipment. Closely matches Invena's subsea connector and offshore powerpack capabilities.
• TETRA Technologies: Provides oilfield services and specialty equipment including downhole tools, production equipment, and industrial chemistry. Comparable mid-sized oil & gas focused engineering and equipment business.

Broad incumbents

• TechnipFMC: Large integrated subsea and surface solutions provider with deep overlap in subsea connectors, controls, and offshore EPC. Operates at much greater scale than Invena but solves the same extreme-environment engineering problems.
• National Oilwell Varco (NOV): Global oilfield equipment OEM producing drilling, completion, and production equipment including wellheads, BOPs, and subsea systems. Similar product breadth to Invena across oil & gas field machinery, at significantly larger scale.
• Curtiss-Wright Corporation: Designs and manufactures highly engineered, ruggedized products for defense, energy, and industrial markets including harsh-environment electronics and naval systems. Comparable ruggedized-data-acquisition and specialty manufacturing capabilities.
