What Trimeric does

Trimeric Corporation is a privately held process engineering consulting firm founded in 2003 and headquartered in Buda, Texas. The company delivers specialized technical services — process engineering, chemical engineering, research and development, process simulation, hazard analysis, and environmental compliance support — to private industry and government clients across oil & gas production, oil refining, silicon processing, electric utilities, geothermal energy, chemicals, biorefining, and pharmaceuticals. Its core technical differentiators are deep, decades-deep expertise in gas treating (H2S scavenging, amine/Claus/TGT systems, SulFerox, CrystaSulf, LO-CAT), sulfur recovery, and CO2 capture/processing/sequestration, supported by five granted U.S. patents and an extensive publications record across Laurance Reid Gas Conditioning Conference, Brimstone Sulfur Recovery Symposium, and GHGT venues.

The firm operates with approximately 26 staff including three principals (Kevin Fisher, Joe Lundeen, Ken McIntush), roughly 19 staff and senior engineers, and five senior associates drawn from industry veterans with 30-50+ years of experience. Underlying delivery relies on commercial process simulation tools (Aspen Plus, HYSYS, VMG Sim, ProMax, OLI) augmented by internally developed modeling approaches validated against plant and literature data.

Trimeric's business model is a sales-led professional services operation: projects are quoted on a scope basis and delivered through direct consulting engagements with enterprise and government clients. Notable quantified outcomes include design of CO2 dehydration facilities processing a combined 850 MMscfd, compression facilities up to 285 MMscfd (5 million tonnes/year), and a 20% capacity increase achieved through process modifications. The firm maintains core institutional partnerships with the U.S. Department of Energy/NETL (ten cooperative agreements managed or assistant-managed), EPRI, and EOR clients on marquee carbon capture projects including the Illinois Basin-Decatur Project and Red Trail Energy CO2 Capture Project.

Broad incumbents

• Burns & McDonnell: U.S. engineering, architecture, and consulting firm with strong refining, midstream, and power-generation practices; overlaps Trimeric on refinery process support, environmental compliance, and CO2 capture engineering scopes for enterprise clients.
• Worley: Global engineering, procurement, and construction consultancy focused on energy, chemicals, and resources; provides process-engineering scopes in refining, gas processing, and CCUS that overlap with Trimeric's specialty services at much larger scale.
• Wood Group: International engineering and consulting firm serving energy, refining, and chemicals with process-engineering and PMC services; directly comparable to Trimeric's refinery and gas-processing work but at much larger scale and broader scope.
• Lummus Technology (McDermott): Process technology licensor and engineering services provider for refining, petrochemical, and gas processing; competes with Trimeric on refinery, sulfur recovery, and gas processing scopes at much larger scale and broader offering.
• Honeywell UOP: Global process technology licensor serving refining, petrochemical, and gas processing with proprietary catalysts, equipment, and engineering services; overlaps directly with Trimeric's gas-treating, sulfur-recovery, and refining technical scopes but at vastly greater scale.

Emerging players

• GTI Energy: Energy research and consulting organization with significant gas-processing, gas-conditioning, and energy-transition programs; comparable to Trimeric in technical depth on gas treating and decarbonization and a potential co-development partner on DOE-style programs.
• Sulzer Chemtech: Provider of separation and process equipment plus related engineering services for refining, petrochemical, and gas processing; comparable to Trimeric on mass-transfer/separations expertise with a more equipment- and licensing-driven business model.

Direct peers

• Bryan Research & Engineering (BRE): Provider of PRO/II, HYSYS-compatible process simulation software and engineering services for refining, gas processing, and petrochemicals; directly comparable to Trimeric's process simulation, gas treating, and refining troubleshooting offerings.
• Fractionation Research Inc. (FRI): Industry consortium and consulting organization focused on distillation, separations, and mass-transfer research; directly overlaps Trimeric's separations expertise, and Trimeric senior associate John Farone is an FRI consultant with a 20+ year tenure on FRI's Technical Advisory Committee.
• Optimized Gas Treating, Inc. (OGT): Houston-based gas-treating simulation and consulting firm specializing in amine systems, sulfur recovery, and CO2 removal; competes head-to-head with Trimeric for the same gas-treating and sulfur-recovery technical scopes and shares personnel provenance (Trimeric's Jeff Weinfeld was previously at OGT).
