The work
The kind of work we do
Examples from our projects. Each shows the client, the year and what IPE contributed.

Design inside an existing plant
New pumps and piping for an ethanol-plant conversion at Podari, designed by IPE in AVEVA E3D; the existing tank farm was laser-scanned as the basis for the design.

Fitting new equipment into a running unit
IPE's detail design of a heat exchanger for nitrous-gas preheating and its tie-ins in the KD2 plant.

Packages for other engineering firms
Deck piping of an LPG carrier, designed by IPE in PDMS as a package for a Danish engineering firm.
