Managing director of Oil
Industries’ Engineering and Construction (OIEC) has explained his company’s
activities in the following interview with Iran International:
Please
explain about the history of Oil Industries’ Engineering and Construction (OIEC)
from its outset.
Oil Industries’ Engineering
and Construction (OIEC) was founded in 1987. It was registered as a private
corporation; however great majority of its shares are owned by National
Iranians Oil Company and Oil Pension Fund Investment Company. It can easily be
claimed that OIEC has the challenges of a private corporation as well as
having to deal with the public sector.
Before OIEC was established
similar services had to be procured from foreign sources. Throughout the past
23 years we have been able to fill this gap and have performed 200 million man
– hours of work by utilizing state of the art technologies specially in
management of mega projects.
This background has
positioned us to be the leading EPC contractor in the Oil, Gas and
Petrochemical industry.
Please
explain about the Company’s services.
OIEC
is an integrated service provider for its clients in the oil, gas and
petrochemical industry. We offer a wide range of services such as engineering,
procurement and construction for various types and sizes of projects, in
addition to rendering turn-key contracts as GC or MC. In order to increase the
confidence of our clients in our ability to cover all aspects of a project,
OIEC has organized various subsidiaries, each a leading expert in their own
field.
