Our Story
Armando Carrillo's extensive 55-year career began in 1969 in the steel industry, where he gained in-depth knowledge about planning and execution of industrial maintenance. He brought this expertise to the oil industry in 1973, with Phillips Petroleum in western Venezuela, as a maintenance planner for gas and power generation plants.
He later advanced to project manager, overseeing gas compression plants' design, construction, installation, and start-up. His managing role took him to lead major plant turnarounds, including turbine and high-capacity compressor overhauls.
In 2003, he relocated to Mexico, to provide consulting services for PEMEX, to optimize production processes in gas processing plants in the Gulf of Mexico. A private operator later contracted him to lead the development of gas production infrastructure in Northern Mexico.
In 2011, he moved to Houston, Texas, where he held several positions, including starting an oil well drilling company and managing projects to install gas processing plants in Bolivia and Argentina, and a power plant in the Dominican Republic. Concurrently, he conducted feasibility studies for installing and optimizing water treatment plants in Mexico and the Bahamas and a methanol plant in Louisiana.
Our Vision
His goal since he graduated in 1968 as a mechanical technician in a technical school, was to apply his knowledge to modernize the industry.
In 1982, after escalating all technical ranks within Shell of Venezuela and Maraven S.A. he enrolled at the University of Texas at Austin, to pursue his BS in Engineering, which will enable him to advance to executive positions in Venezuela's oil industry.
In 2003, he emigrated to Mexico due to political conflicts with the regime in power. Once in Mexico, he applied his attributes and experience to operate as an independent professional with his firm. In 2008, he registered TECINCA as a DBA in Texas. Later, in 2018, it was converted to TECINCA LLC to broaden its offer of goods and services.
Our Team
TECINCA operates under the philosophy of knowledge networks and its software infrastructure allows it to conduct predesign studies for gas compression and treatment processes, water processing, and power generation. Additionally, the company collaborates with associates with over 40 years of experience in production process calculations, 3D design, detailed engineering, equipment, and materials processing, and the inspection and supervision of works to meet the specific requirements of each project.
