What Petrokens Engineering and Services does

Petrokens Engineering and Services Pvt Ltd is a Chennai-headquartered engineering design and project management consultancy founded in 2016 that serves oil & gas operators, EPC contractors, and industrial clients across India, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. The firm delivers end-to-end engineering services spanning concept/feasibility, FEED, detailed engineering, procurement support, PMC, commissioning, and simulation (CFD, FEA, multi-physics, digital twin) for upstream, midstream, and downstream projects, alongside disaster/safety/risk modelling and computational engineering work.

The company's technology layer rests on four registered software products: PETROLENZ, an NLP and Computer Vision platform that scans P&IDs, datasheets, isometrics, and 3D models for code compliance (ASME/API/ISO) with claimed 95% error detection and 70% QC time reduction; ANKANI, an IIoT-and-ML predictive maintenance platform for rotating equipment (primarily pumps) combining physics-based models with sensor data; ProjectEPC, a cloud-native ERP built exclusively for engineering consultancies and EPC contractors; and WORKLOGZ, a multi-module general ERP with 200+ modules. These products are complemented by digital transformation services in AI, IoT, blockchain, cloud, and cybersecurity.

Petrokens generates revenue primarily through project-based professional services contracts with enterprise clients, supplemented by an emerging SaaS/license stream from its four software products. The go-to-market is direct enterprise sales via the Chennai HQ and six regional offices (Erbil, Petaling Jaya, Abu Dhabi, Hanoi, Yangon, Vientiane); pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is ISO 9001:2015 certified and counts ONGC, IOCL, ADNOC, Gazprom, Genel Energy, HMEL, Vedanta, BORL, and Alcarity among its named customers.
