The Independent Engineer (IE) is crucial to successful financing of many capital projects.  Our experience is global, with project experience in 50 countries on six continents.  R. W. Beck consultants have served as IE in a variety of projects including a greenfield gas processing and NGL fractionation facility in the Peruvian jungle; a world-scale gas gathering, treating, and transport facility in Pakistan; an oil sands upgrader complex in Canada; a butane isomerization plant in California; a petrochemical complex in Nigeria; a natural gas storage project in New York; liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities in Australia, Mexico and the U.S.; a major petroleum products transshipment terminal in Singapore; and thousands of miles of pipelines transporting natural gas, crude oil, refined petroleum products or tar-sands bitumen. 

By necessity, the IE function incorporates many aspects of due diligence, feasibility studies and new technology evaluations. Our combination of engineering knowledge with real-world experience in project management, operations and commercial roles is key to determining a project’s potential to fulfill its financial obligations. Because we understand the needs of the finance community and deliver our opinions in a direct, unbiased manner, financial decisions are made with confidence.
