Demonstrated Value and Expertise
Although the initial contract is nearing its original term, it has been extended due to project delays, a testament to Tigenco’s reliable performance. Tigenco has consistently demonstrated resilience and compliance across all HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment), Quality, and Legal matters. Our team has navigated challenging site conditions, including working double shifts, weathering road blockages, and managing natural disasters.
Beyond simple testing, we have served as a trusted advisor, proactively guiding the client on required testing protocols and offering expertise on appropriate methods for earthwork structure construction. Our long-standing reputation for quality and precision has subsequently led to opportunities for Tigenco to work on other Petrosea sites, further cementing our valued partnership.
