What Intecsa Industrial does

Intecsa Industrial (legal name: INTECSA INGENIERIA INDUSTRIAL, S.A.) is a Spanish-headquartered international EPC contractor founded in 1965 in Madrid, providing turnkey engineering, procurement and construction services for industrial plants in the hydrocarbons production and processing value chain. The company executes complex, capital-intensive projects for oil majors, national oil companies and petrochemical producers, with disclosed reference contracts including a €387M SABIC polyoxymethylene (POM) plant in Jubail, Saudi Arabia, a €200M SABIC ethylene oxide reactor replacement, and a €30M Saudi Aramco loading rack upgrade at Ras Tanura. Customers span REPSOL, SABIC, Saudi Aramco, BASF / Shell-Basell, DuPont, CEPSA, MA'ADEN, OCP Group, PEMEX, ADNOC/TAKREER, and ENAGAS across oil refining, petrochemicals, fertilizers, upstream oil & gas, cogeneration, mining and recycling end markets.

The company's technology stack centers on in-house multidisciplinary engineering — spanning basic and detailed engineering, process technology packaging, procurement, construction, commissioning and start-up — supported by state-of-the-art IT systems dedicated to project integration management (HSE, document control, procurement, planning). Operational capacity is anchored at ~1,000,000 technical man-hours per year with a workforce of 1,001–5,000 across offices in Madrid, Al Khobar (Saudi Arabia) and Abu Dhabi (UAE), and a wholly owned Gulf subsidiary, Dragados Gulf Construction Co. Ltd. The product portfolio is organized by sector (New Energies / Green Hydrogen, Fertilizers, Petrochemicals & Fine Chemicals, Petroleum Refining, Upstream Oil & Gas, Energy, Co-Generation, Recycling & Mining) with explicit innovation lines in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and the MODUS microwave-assisted PET recycling project (40,000 tpy) developed with GR3N.

The business model is project-based: revenue is generated from lump-sum, multi-year turnkey EPC contracts awarded through competitive tendering to large enterprise clients (oil majors, state-owned enterprises, petrochemical majors). Pricing is custom per project scope (engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning), with no public price list. Intecsa Industrial is privately held and fully integrated within Cobra IS, which is wholly owned by the Vinci Group — a relationship that provides balance-sheet capacity, group-level risk sharing, and pipeline access, while subordinating the company to parent-group capital allocation. Geographic reach spans ~35 countries across Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America and North America; a notable strategic emphasis is visible on energy-transition and circular-economy verticals, signaled by recent product-line launches in green hydrogen, SAF, and the MODUS PET recycling partnership.
