ENCOTEC, TÜV Rheinland advance industrial asset operations in Azerbaijan

ENCOTEC, in partnership with TÜV Rheinland, is working to promote new engineering solutions for the operation of industrial assets in Azerbaijan, Anar Ahmadov, the Managing Director of ENCOTEC - TÜV Rheinland Industrial Services UK, said.

He made the remark on the sidelines of the Asset Integrity Corrosion, Coatings Conference and Showcase (AICC Caspian 2025) held in Baku, noting that they cooperate with most of the key players in the market, including SOCAR, SOCAR Downstream, SOCAR Upstream, SOCAR Midstream, as well as bp, Caliber.Az reports via local media.

“Our activities are mainly focused on traditional engineering - the construction and modernisation of industrial facilities," Ahmadov emphasised.

He noted that the conference topic differs somewhat: “We are talking about the application of engineering approaches at the facility operation stage. This is no longer construction but technical operation, where new challenges arise: how to maintain assets in good condition at minimal cost while ensuring high safety standards. For Azerbaijan and for us as engineers, this is a relatively new area of practice. Therefore, in partnership with the German specialist company, we aim to promote this approach in Azerbaijan.”

ENCOTEC is a multi‑discipline engineering, consulting, design and project‑management company headquartered in Baku, Azerbaijan, founded in 2001.

The firm provides end-to-end services, including feasibility studies, conceptual and detailed engineering design, procurement, construction/fabrication, installation, commissioning (EPC / EPCm / PMC), as well as project management and construction supervision.
