OUR HISTORY
Ingeniería Cardón, S.A. (ICSA) was founded in 1977 as an engineering consulting firm, with the purpose of providing engineering services and technical assistance in support of Venezuela’s oil industry.
Since our inception, we have participated in numerous projects across Venezuela’s oil sector, accumulating more than 4,250,000 man-hours over more than four decades of operations.
In 1987, we strengthened our position as a multidisciplinary engineering consulting firm by obtaining the corresponding qualification in Maraven, S.A.’s Unified Contractors Register (RUC), a predecessor of today’s Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA).
In 2001, we obtained ISO 9001 certification following the assessment performed by FONDONORMA of our Quality Management System (QMS). Our certification scope was established as: “Engineering and Technical Assistance Services for the Oil and Gas Industry.” Our QMS has demonstrated sustained conformity with ISO 9001 for more than two decades, successively incorporating the updates to the standard (1995, 2000, 2008 and 2015) under that scope.
Building on this milestone, we reinforced our continuous improvement approach across our processes, with the objective of diversifying operations while maintaining the reliability and service quality we deliver to our clients.
Today, we maintain an organizational structure with extensive experience in the execution, supervision, management, and control of engineering and technical assistance projects. This structure is supported by a team of highly qualified professionals and technicians, specialized across multiple disciplines and prepared to support projects throughout all phases.
Experience, accumulated knowledge, technological readiness, and continuous innovation define the added value of our services. We operate with a clear client focus: we seek to understand client needs, meet requirements, and exceed expectations. Earning client trust and loyalty is a constant objective of our work; therefore, we promote the personal and professional development of our workforce as an essential factor in strengthening the company’s competitiveness and sustaining our quality standards.
Within the context of the international expansion of the energy market, Ingeniería Cardón, S.A. successfully undertook a growth process that enabled us to establish subsidiaries in Spain, Peru, Chile, and Colombia. We have also delivered services in Suriname and the Dominican Republic.
Internationally, we have also participated in the development of engineering deliverables for projects in Europe and several other countries, through a Technical Assistance Services (SAT) agreement maintained for more than ten years (2007–2017) with the Spanish company Técnicas Reunidas, S.A.
