What Techint Group does
Techint Engineering & Construction (Techint E&C), founded in 1945 and headquartered in Buenos Aires, is the engineering, procurement, and construction arm of the Techint Group (parent: San Faustin S.A.). Operating across more than 13 countries in Latin America, North America, Europe, and Asia, with 19,000+ employees and 9 engineering centers executing 1.9 million engineering hours per year, the company delivers large-scale infrastructure for oil & gas, mining, energy, downstream/petrochemicals, and civil works clients. Its flagship projects include the Gasoducto Perito Francisco Pascasio Moreno (542 km, +30% Argentina gas transport capacity), the FPSO P-76 offshore platform (150,000 bopd + 7 MM m³/day gas), the Dos Bocas Refinery in Mexico, the Pesquería 900 MW combined-cycle power plant, and the SADDN desalination and 160+ km water pipeline system in northern Chile.
The company is an end-to-end EPC contractor using automated welding systems, double-joint plants, horizontal directional drilling, 3D concrete printing, BIM/digital twin technology, drone surveying, VR/AR, and machine vision across its project portfolio. It maintains ISO 9001, 14001, 45001, 50001, and road safety certifications concurrently, is a UN Global Compact signatory since 2019, and has delivered 3,500+ projects without leaving any unfinished. Its customer base consists of state-owned energy and mining majors (YPF, Petrobras, Pemex, Codelco) and industrial groups within the Techint Group (Tenaris, Ternium, Techgen), supplemented by a growing portfolio of energy transition projects including HIF Global's e-Fuels plants, the Mexinol hydrogen/methanol complex with Siemens Energy, and Tenaris-connected wind farms.
Revenue is generated primarily through bespoke, project-based EPC contracts (fixed-price or cost-plus) won via competitive tenders and direct negotiations. Contracts are typically multi-year, involve joint ventures such as Techint-SACDE for Argentine pipelines, and are complemented by post-construction operations and maintenance services (e.g., 3 million accident-free hours at Ternium Brasil). Pricing is fully project-specific and not publicly disclosed; engineering, procurement, and construction scope is priced individually based on complexity, risk allocation, and timeline. The company is private, with no public ticker, and operates as part of the broader Techint Group consolidated under San Faustin S.A.
