About Linde Engineering
Executive Leadership Team
Corporate Social Responsibility
Meticulous planning is the key to success. Our engineering experts are world leaders in the development of bespoke plants and process technologies. We team up with our customers, working closely with them to engineer the optimum process - no matter how complex - based on state-of-the-art proprietary and proven licensed technologies.
High-tech equipment is vital for a host of different industrial processes - from air separation through natural gas processing to cryogenic temperature control. We build on a rich portfolio of cutting-edge technologies, backed by around 1,000 process patents. Keeping a close eye on market dynamics and emerging trends, our experts also have the industry insights to develop solutions that will keep pace with tomorrow’s challenges.
We are one of the few companies with expertise extending along the entire technology, engineering, procurement and construction (T-EPC) value chain, enabling us to execute and deliver turnkey industrial plants worldwide. At the engineering step, we build on largely proprietary technologies to create ready-to-build blueprints for plants and their components. To date, we have planned and executed over 4,000 plants worldwide. Our portfolio extends from air separation and natural gas processing plants through ethylene crackers and membrane plants to production facilities for hydrogen, synthesis gas and ammonia.
Our logistics teams transport modules weighing several thousand metric tons to the most remote corners of the globe. But we also ship smaller, single components, always choosing the fastest route to get urgent deliveries on site, on time. No matter what you need, we make the impossible possible - with the backing of our dedicated supplier approval concept coupled with a reliable, scalable and transparent request and order process. This enables us to offer you outstanding quality, on-time deliveries and a host of value-add services at great prices.
Our technologies are made to withstand extreme temperatures ranging from -271 to 1,200 degrees Celsius. From cryogenic tanks and heat exchangers to premanufactured modules, all plant components are manufactured and customized at our state-of-the-art production facilities. We draw on decades of expertise to continually improve component design to the benefit of our customers.
Constructing an industrial plant is a mammoth, multi-step undertaking spanning the entire technology, engineering, procurement and construction (T-EPC) value chain. Through our assembly monitoring centers, assembly partners and global network of fabrication yards, we ensure that all resources and experts are in the right place, at the right time. We are also the partner of choice when it comes to the final, all-important step in the process - commissioning. Our commissioning engineers make sure that your multi-million plant is fully ready for operations before they efficiently and smoothly hand it over to you.
At the heart of our LINDE PLANTSERV service offering is a detailed understanding of the inner workings of your plant - down to the last nut and bolt. Covering everything from consulting and training through spare parts management, maintenance and revamps to remote services and relocations, our experts will help you take performance to the max and maintain your asset cost-effectively at that level. We leverage the latest digital technologies to achieve this, including virtual plant twins, our online marketplace and smart glasses.
Driving Ground-Breaking Technologies
Over 1,000 process patents and more than 4,000 successful builds bear clear testimony to our strong innovative drive and impressive technology portfolio.
Separating and Purifying Gases
Our air separation plants produce vital industrial gases such as oxygen and nitrogen, as well as argon and other noble gases. Customers can choose from a tailored build or modular solution. Our hydrogen and synthesis gas plants produce hydrogen, carbon monoxide and mixtures of these two gases, as well as ammonia and methanol. We also provide adsorptive and cryogenic processes for natural gas processing. The latest adsorption and membrane technologies round out our portfolio, ensuring customers can rely on us for the entire gas separation process flow.
Liquefying Gases
Natural gas can be efficiently stored and transported over long distances in cryogenic form as liquefied natural gas (LNG). Industry customers often also require other gases such as nitrogen and oxygen in liquid form. We are the only manufacturer to produce both coil-wound and plate-fin heat exchangers for these cryogenic liquefaction processes. Renowned research institutes the world over rely on our proven, tailor-made cryogenic solutions.
Thermal Processes
Petrochemical plants produce important industrial feedstocks such as olefins, including ethylene, propylene and butadiene. We provide the steam crackers needed to recover these commodities. We also manufacture process and refinery furnaces and are a leading provider of hydrogen and syngas plants.
Plant Components & Turbo Machinery
From cryogenic columns and tanks through heat exchangers to coldboxes and pre-manufactured plant modules, we manufacture core process components for a wide range of plant types. Customers can also rely on us for the fabrication of turbo machinery such as turbines, pumps and compressors and other specialist equipment.
