Standout Projects

Throughout our journey, we have taken on some of the industry’s most challenging projects, helping clients navigate complex engineering and technical demands. Some highlights include:

  • HKLNG Terminal The HK-LNG project is the first double-jetty offshore LNG terminal in Asia designed for Q-Max FSRUs, where INCITIAS provided end-to-end expertise from site and technology selection and EIA approvals to FEED, EPC supervision, and commissioning, setting new benchmarks in critical LNG infrastructure and demonstrating our exceptional capability in cleaner energy solution.
  • Mina Justa Sulphuric Hose Reel An original equipment solution designed to enhance operational efficiency and reduce emissions in industrial energy applications. This project marked several industry firsts:
    • First hose reel engineered for seamless containerized shipping, optimizing logistics and deployment.
    • First reel designed to manage a floating hose exceeding 800 meters in length.
    • First sulphuric acid hose reel, addressing the unique challenges of safely handling highly corrosive materials.
  • Transition to Green Hydrogen and Ammonia projects INCITIAS is driving the transition to green hydrogen and ammonia through strategic consulting and engineering. Our expertise spans technologies ranging from liquid hydrogen as aviation fuel, green ammonia storage and transportation in India, Oman, and Egypt, and delivering the EPCM for Australia’s first photocatalytic reactor plant, positioning us at the forefront of sustainable energy innovation.
