What Technodyne International does

Technodyne International Limited is a UK-headquartered specialized engineering consultancy that provides design and consultancy services for cryogenic and liquefied gas storage tanks, spheres, and vessels up to 260,000m³ capacity. Founded in 1995 in Eastleigh by B. John Thompson and J. Michael Haworth, the firm has built a reference portfolio of more than 107 storage tanks across single, double, and full containment configurations for LNG, LPG (propane/butane), ammonia, ethylene, ethane, and other petrochemical products. The company has operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of TGE Gas Engineering GmbH (part of CIMC Group) since 2011, following an earlier 74% acquisition by Punj Lloyd PTE Limited in 2008.

The technical offering covers the full engineering lifecycle: concept and FEED studies, detailed mechanical/structural/civil-geotechnical design, piping, electrical, instrumentation, controls and process engineering, owner's engineer services, construction supervision, EEMUA159-qualified tank rehabilitation, failure investigations, and trouble-shooting. Technodyne engineers apply major international design codes (EN 14620, API 620/625, API 650, ACI 318/376, EC2/EC3, ASCE 7, AISC 360, and Chinese GB/GBT codes) and several team members participate on the EN 14620 and ACI 376 code committees. The firm holds ISO 9001 certification and serves enterprise clients globally, with a project footprint spanning the UK, mainland Europe, China, India, Bangladesh, and the United States.

The business model is project-based professional services delivered through direct enterprise sales. Revenue is generated per project from design contracts, owner's engineer engagements, advisory work, and rehabilitation studies, with pricing determined by project scope, tank size, and complexity rather than standardized rates. Customers include major operators and contractors such as National Grid, Sempra Energy, Ineos, Guangdong Energy Group, Shenzhen Gas Corporation, SHV Energy, and REN Atlântico. Marketing channels are limited primarily to LinkedIn, reflecting a relationship-driven B2B go-to-market typical of small specialist engineering consultancies operating within a global parent group network.
