How we work with you

A working day with your Trinidad & Tobago team

Nothing about this is improvised. Trinidad & Tobago is 9 h 30 m behind our engineering desk (UTC+05:30), so we run a fixed daily rhythm around your working hours in Trinidad & Tobago.

Sector focus

Industries & project types in Trinidad & Tobago

Sector experience matters more than hours. Here is where our Trinidad & Tobago workload sits and what those packages contain.

01

Mining

Sector page

Heavy, abrasive-duty structures built far from anywhere — so the drawings have to be right first time.

  • Conveyor galleries and trestles
  • Transfer towers and chutes
  • Silos, bins and hoppers
  • Crusher and mill building steel
02

Oil & Gas

Sector page

Upstream, midstream and downstream packages for operators, EPCs and the fabricators who build for them.

  • Separator & metering skids
  • Pipe racks and process structures
  • B31.3 stress packages
  • Wellhead and compressor modules
03

Energy

Sector page

Generation and transmission assets where equipment loads drive both the structure and the foundations.

  • Power-block and BOP structures
  • Steam and condensate stress analysis
  • Tank farms and terminal steel
  • Switchyard and substation frames
04

Industrial

Sector page

Production and logistics facilities where tonnage economy and erection speed decide the bid.

  • PEB and heavy industrial sheds
  • Crane gantries and runway beams
  • Mezzanines, platforms and stairs
  • Equipment support structures

Commercial & compliance

Contracting, IP and invoicing for Trinidad & Tobago

Engineering is the easy part of an offshore engagement — the contract, the IP and the invoice are what stall it. Here is how we set those up for Trinidad & Tobago clients.

Fixed-price package

Quote in 24 h · 2–4 milestones

Best for: A defined scope — one building, one skid, one vessel

Lump sum against an agreed drawing and tonnage list. Milestone invoicing, and change orders only for scope you approve in writing.

Rate-based delivery

Weekly reporting · monthly invoice

Best for: Scope that is still moving

Per-drawing, per-tonne or per-hour rates fixed up front, with a weekly burn and progress report so the invoice never surprises you.

Dedicated engineers (ODC)

Monthly per seat · 1-month notice

Best for: A continuous workload across many projects

Named engineers reserved for you each month, working in your folder structure, templates and drawing standards under your team lead.

The paperwork, up front

Working with SES from Trinidad & Tobago

Invoicing currency
USD by default — other currencies on request
Payment terms
Milestone or monthly invoicing, net 30 days from invoice
Contract vehicle
NDA, then a master services agreement with a priced scope schedule per package
IP & ownership
Models, drawings, calculations and native files transfer to you on final payment
Cross-border paperwork
Tax-residency and invoice documentation supplied for Trinidad & Tobago finance and treaty relief
Insurance
Professional indemnity cover; certificate issued with the proposal on request

Local practice: Bilingual title blocks and drawing notes on request, with documentation structured for EPC and owner review gates.

Confidentiality, IP & data security

  • Mutual NDA signed before drawings are exchanged — usually inside one working day.
  • All models, drawings, calculations and native files become your property on final payment.
  • Project data lives in access-controlled folders; only the named team on your job can open them.
  • No sub-contracting of your scope to a third party without your written consent.
  • Every deliverable is produced on genuine licensed software, so your submission chain stays clean.
  • Transfers over your portal, SharePoint, or our encrypted link — whichever your IT policy allows.
