We land in Uruguay with our first refractory project in the country

03 / 07 / 2023

DOMINION is going to develop its first engineering and material replacement project at a refinery in Montevideo, Uruguay.

Currently, refractory engineering plays a fundamental role in various industrial sectors that require thermal processes. The importance of using refractory materials is essential for maintaining extreme temperatures in industrial facilities operating at over 1,100°C. Its main objective is to reliably retain heat in areas where environmental protection from these temperatures is required, while also mitigating climate impact and promoting energy efficiency.

DOMINION accumulates more than 100 years of experience in refractory projects offering specialized solutions for the technological update of the sector and for its engineering and maintenance.

Recently, our industrial services unit based in Argentina secured a contract for a project at a refinery located in Montevideo, Uruguay. This is a significant achievement in expanding our industrial activities to a new country.

We will provide engineering, demolition, and replacement services for refractory material in various equipment at the refinery, in a key process of the petrochemical industry where high-quality fuels are obtained.

For the development of this project, DOMINION will collaborate with a renowned Uruguayan company in the field of engineering, construction, and concessions. This strategic collaboration allows us to meet our objectives of geographical expansion, starting our activity in a new country. We continue betting on business diversification, one of the fundamental pillars of DOMINION.
