A TECHNOLOGY OF CHOICE YOUR NEEDS ARE OUR GOALS EXPERIENCE IN THE FIELD COMPANY YOU CAN RELY UPON

Sudprogetti was incorporated, as a joint stock company, in 1973, when a project for the new Isab refinery in Priolo, Sicily, was implemented. Its aim was to supply engineering services to the main industrial groups in the Siracusa area. THE WAY WE WERE: THE WAY WE ARE After strengthening its standing in the territory and reaching a leading position in the local market, Sudprogetti extended its operating capacity to all of Sicily and to other industrial sites throughout Italy with increased renown for high flexibility in organization and operation. Nowadays Sudprogetti does business in the field of engineering and construction of petrochemical plants, mainly in revamping and plant shutdown maintenance activities. The company and its subsidiaries have an overall manpower of 150.000 engineering hours per year. Throughout more than three decades of activity, Sudprogetti improved its qualifications in the engineering field, by offering a wide range of high technology services with its very flexible and highly qualified organization. Sudprogetti can provide a well coordinated team of professionals committed to meeting schedules and staying within budget. In Sudprogetti, throughout the company, there is a keen awareness of the need for sound safety and environmental practices. Sudprogetti was awarded a Quality System Certificate, based on UNI EN ISO 9001 standards, by Moody International Certification. The steady revenue growth achieved by Sudprogetti over the last decade of its operating life shows that the company s expansion strategy was well planned and its management very careful and professional. Recently Sudprogetti initiated a promotion and marketing campaign in Europe and in several African and Middle East countries, where a sound chemical and petrochemical industry is well established.

Process design and development: Sudprogetti offers, by itself or through specific exclusive agreements with companies specialized in the relevant field, leading edge technologies and processes in the petrochemical sector. Problem solving know-how for maintenance activities: As an engineering company and general contractor, Sudprogetti has dealt with the main issues related to the implementation of technology, upgrading projects for major plants in the petrochemical sector, by developing a series of operating practices based on the use of dedicated software to optimize shutdown schedule and costs as well as plant update requirements. Project flexibility: On account of its medium size dimension, Sudprogetti can carry out projects with extreme flexibility in terms of objectives sought and achieve assignments that others would consider problematic. OUR STRENGTHS Methodology approach: In the course of its business life Sudprogetti has dealt mostly with projects characterized by different forms of involvement in accountability for the project success (turn-key agreements, cost plus fee with maximum guaranteed amount, etc.). The approach normally followed by the company, which is now its structural mentality, is to find the best solution for a project that is a good compromise between quality, time and costs, always having in mind safety as a priority factor.
