SEIP

What SEIP does

SEIP S.R.L. is an Argentine private company founded in 1992 by former YPF professionals that delivers automation and control systems engineering and maintenance services to the oil and gas industry. The company is part of the Innovisión Group following a 2001 integration, and operates four field-service bases across Argentina's primary hydrocarbon-producing provinces (Chubut, Neuquén, and Santa Cruz), with more than 250 personnel deployed in field services.

SEIP's service portfolio spans API 576-certified safety and relief valve maintenance, PLC/RTU/HMI programming and telesupervision system deployment, calibration of Micromotion mass flow meters and Floboss gas flow meters for production measurement, electromagnetic flow meter servicing for injection water measurement, electronic process instrument configuration, and pneumatic automation system repair. Underlying capabilities include a state-of-the-art calibration bench enabling ISO 9000-compliant certification, plus an internal digital platform providing quality assurance, traceability, and cost optimization across field operations. The company holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018 certifications and competes directly with large international engineering firms on price-quality.

The business operates on a B2B enterprise field-services model, delivering both project-based engineering engagements (design, implementation, and deployment of automation systems) and recurring maintenance contracts. Named customers include PAE (Petrobras Argentina) — where SEIP maintains a co-located operations base at the Cerro Dragón field — and YPF, the company's origin client. SEIP documents 40%+ operational cost reductions, 30% improvements in fiscal gas measurement time and cost, 54% TCO reduction, and 50% productivity gains on major contracts, positioning itself as a lower-cost local alternative to multinational service providers in the Argentine O&G value chain.
