What TOSL Engineering does

TOSL Engineering Limited is a privately held, integrated engineering solutions company headquartered in Marabella, Trinidad and Tobago, founded in 1982 by Shazan Ali. It operates across nine core service divisions — Electrical, Instrumentation & Automation; Engineering Services; Projects & Operations; Wire Rope & Rigging; Chemical, Process & Asset Integrity; Industrial & Safety; Solar, Wind & Hybrid Systems; Water & Waste Water Management; and Certified Habitat Solutions — serving oil & gas (offshore and onshore), petrochemical, utilities, manufacturing, food processing, water/wastewater, and commercial industries primarily in Trinidad & Tobago and the wider Caribbean. Business operations span more than 91,000 sq. ft. of warehouses, engineering and service workshops, corporate office, and specialized facilities, supported by 250+ employees and a 24/7 enterprise hotline.

The company's underlying technology stack is rooted in physical engineering infrastructure rather than software platforms: it commissions domain-specialized equipment such as the Mobile Offshore Production Unit (MOPU) for offshore oil & gas and distributes/resells third-party industrial brands including Baldor (motors), Crosby (rigging), Bullard (safety), Yamada (pumps), Alfa Laval (heat exchangers), Waukesha (compressors/engines), Thorogood, and Stewart Buchanan. It also offers condition-monitoring tools such as the VIBROSTORE 100 for predictive maintenance. Notable compliance and quality frameworks include ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001, and PCI DSS for its e-commerce payment channel, alongside multiple Energy Chamber of Trinidad & Tobago Corporate Governance Awards and AMCHAM HSSE awards.

TOSL monetizes through two primary streams: (1) Engineering Products and Equipment Sales — direct sale of electrical equipment, instrumentation, motors, pumps, compressors, generators, pressure gauges, wire rope, rigging equipment, safety PPE, and industrial supplies, both via direct enterprise sales and via the shop.tosl.com e-commerce storefront; and (2) Engineering Services — technical advisory, calibration, machine shop, predictive maintenance, valve supply and service, fabrication, welding, mechanical installation, blasting/painting, insulation/refractory, scaffolding, and consulting. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales for large oil & gas and industrial clients, supplemented by a transactional e-commerce channel for SMB and individual buyers. Customer segments are organized vertically (Oil & Gas is primary; Industrial & Manufacturing, Water & Wastewater, Utilities, and a horizontal Wire Rope & Rigging segment). In April 2025, the company acquired ANSA Technologies Limited to extend capabilities in the energy services sector.
