CB&Iis one of the world’s leading engineering, procurement and construction companies and a major process technology licensor. We provide a comprehensive range of solutions to customers in the energy and natural resource industries. Drawing upon the expertise of more than 16, 000 employees worldwide, CB&I offers a full scope of services, from conceptual design and technology licensing, through engineering, procurement, fabrication and construction, to final commissioning and beyond – with a portfolio of aftermarket services. With engineering offices and projects located around the world, CB&I has the global experience and local expertise to safely deliver superior results even in the most challenging environments.

Our comprehensive portfolio of projects across the industries we serve and our concept-to-completion range of capabilities position us to meet the needs of our clients year after year. Founded in 1889 in Chicago, Illinois, USA, as Chicago Bridge & Iron Company, today's CB&I combines proven process technology with global capabilities in engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) to deliver comprehensive solutions to customers in the energy and natural resource industries. While initially involved in bridge design and construction, we turned our focus to bulk liquid storage in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, coinciding with the western expansion of railroads across the United States and the discovery of oil in the U.S. Southwest. CB&I quickly became known for our excellent design engineering and field construction of elevated water storage tanks, aboveground tanks for storage of petroleum and refined products, refinery process vessels and other steel plate structures. In late 2000, CB&I embarked on a series of acquisitions that have dramatically expanded our services to encompass the entire hydrocarbon value chain, from wellhead through processing and distribution. With our most recent acquisition of Lummus Global in late 2007, CB&I and Lummus together can now offer customers a total solutions package that comprises technology licensing and related catalysts; front end engineering and design (FEED); EPC services; commissioning; and aftermarket support. While the scope of our technology and our ability to deliver large EPC projects have grown, traditional CB&I business practices that our customers have come to expect have not changed. We still specialize in lump-sum, turnkey project execution. We still do almost everything it takes to deliver a project with our own direct-hire employees. And our long-standing commitment to safety, quality, integrity and value has not changed.
