What Carlton Industrial Engineers does

Carlton Industrial Engineers is a Mumbai-based industrial engineering and fabrication company established in 1988, specializing in certified offshore equipment and EPC services for the oil and gas sector. The company designs and manufactures pressure vessels, DNV-certified skids (standards 2.7.1 and 2.7.3), burner booms (60-120 ft), cementing batch mixers, gas treating equipment (JT Skids, sweetening, scrubbing, dehydration), high-pressure desanders, and Early Production Systems under ASME U-Stamp and R-Stamp authorizations. It has manufactured over 130 DNV/ABS-certified burner booms and executed multi-year EPC contracts including a USD 59 million BBBLRP replacement for ONGC. Operations are supported by four manufacturing units across Maharashtra MIDC industrial zones (Prabhadevi, B-20 MIDC, G-5 MIDC, Taloja, Tarapur) and span India's major offshore and onshore hydrocarbon basins with selective international dry dock work at Dubai and Pipavav shipyards.

The company's technology is rooted in heavy fabrication, precision welding, and engineered-to-order equipment design, with all manufacturing performed under third-party inspection by ABS, DNV, and IRS. Core capabilities span the full project lifecycle — design engineering, in-house fabrication, site fabrication, offshore heavy installation, installation and commissioning, and 24/7 O&M support — enabling turnkey delivery for platform revival, rig dry dock repairs, and process system upgrades. The product portfolio is documented through ten service line pages and a projects section featuring case studies with ONGC, Cairn India, Halliburton, Transocean, Expro, Superior Energy Services, and others.

Carlton operates a sales-led enterprise field sales motion, engaging directly with oil and gas operators, EPC contractors, and oilfield service companies through a website-based enquiry funnel. All product and service pages feature an 'Enquire Now' CTA routing to structured enquiry forms, consistent with project-based custom quoting rather than fixed pricing. Revenue is generated through five streams: specialized equipment manufacturing (one-time sale), turnkey EPC projects (multi-year, single-contract up to USD 59M), installation and commissioning services, dry dock repairs and classification work, and site fabrication with skilled labor supply. Reported turnover is Rs. 5 billion (~USD 60 million) over 35+ years of operations. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investment rounds and appears independently owned.

Direct peers

• Afcons Infrastructure: Indian EPC contractor (part of the Shapoorji Pallonji Group) executing offshore and marine construction, including platform jackets and brownfield oil & gas work. Closest Indian-domestic peer to CIE by virtue of overlapping offshore fabrication execution and customer base in Indian waters.
• Lamprell: UAE-based specialist offshore fabrication company focused on rig construction, offshore structures, and pressure-vessel fabrication — directly comparable business model of a regionally-headquartered, cert-driven fabrication specialist serving international O&G clients. CIE is similarly positioned as the 'India-based Lamprell' for the Indian/Middle East market.

Broad incumbents

• TechnipFMC: Global offshore EPCI company spanning subsea, surface, and onshore/offshore engineering. Operates the same DNV/ASME certified fabrication ecosystem for offshore platforms and process modules, with substantially larger project portfolio and balance sheet versus CIE.
• Saipem: Italian-headquartered offshore and onshore EPC contractor executing platforms, subsea developments, and process modules. Similar international-certification-driven model (DNV, ABS) and comparable offshore fabrication scope, but with global delivery scale far exceeding CIE's.
• KBR: Global EPC and engineering services provider with a strong offshore oil & gas delivery track record (platforms, modules, and process packages). Competes for similar Indian and international offshore fabrication tenders at scale far beyond CIE's specialist scope.
• Aker Solutions: Norwegian offshore engineering and EPC firm specializing in subsea, offshore platforms, and process modules for international oil & gas operators. Comparable certification-driven fabrication model and offshore-process-equipment scope as CIE.
• Larsen & Toubro (L&T Hydrocarbon): India's largest EPC contractor with a deep Hydrocarbon division executing offshore platform EPC, process modules, and brownfield revamps. CIE competes for the same Indian offshore tenders as a specialist fabricator while L&T operates as a tier-1 generalist prime contractor with much larger balance-sheet and execution scale.
• Petrofac: International EPC and operations services provider for the oil & gas industry, with offshore platform and process-module execution capabilities. Operates in the same international-certification and offshore-fabrication space as CIE but at significantly larger project scale.
• McDermott International: Global offshore EPC leader (EPCI for fixed and floating platforms, subsea pipelines, and offshore fabrication). CIE competes for offshore platform-related work and shares the same certification universe (ASME, DNV) but operates as a tier-2 specialist vs McDermott's tier-1 prime-contractor scale.

Regional players

• National Petroleum Construction Company (NPCC): UAE-based EPC contractor focused on offshore and onshore oil & gas construction, including platform fabrication, subsea pipelines, and process modules. Operates in the same Middle East corridor where CIE conducts dry-dock work, with comparable offshore-certification-driven business model.
