Quiet precision behind complex plants.
Sharma Engineering Consultants is an independent United Kingdom consultancy providing process engineering, commissioning & start-up, and owner's engineering services to refineries and petrochemical facilities worldwide.
Expertise
Engineering counsel across the asset lifecycle
From the first heat and material balance to the final performance test, we bring senior, hands-on judgement to the questions that decide whether a plant performs.
Commissioning & Start-up
Planning and execution support from mechanical completion to steady-state operation — pre-commissioning, performance test runs, test report evaluation and operational acceptance strategy.
Owner's Engineering & PMC
Independent oversight that protects the owner's interest at every gate — design and vendor document review, technical bid evaluation, and assurance of contractor deliverables.
Equipment & Package Review
Deep scrutiny of static and rotating equipment documentation — heat exchanger thermal design, datasheet and drawing consistency, and assessment of modification and fabrication deviations.
Technical Advisory & Disputes
Rigorous, defensible analysis when projects become contested — arbitration-grade technical reports, force majeure and risk advisories, root-cause investigation and independent expert review.
Digital Engineering
Purpose-built calculation software where spreadsheets stop being enough — hydraulic network simulation, relief load applications and bespoke engineering workflow automation.
Why clients retain us
Every engagement is led by the engineer who signs it.
We have worked on every side of a major project — for contractors executing the work, for project management consultants assuring it, and for owners accepting it. That perspective shows in deliverables that are practical, grounded in code, and written to withstand scrutiny from a start-up team, a lender's engineer or an arbitral tribunal.
We deliberately remain a small practice. Nothing is delegated downward; the experience you engage is the experience you receive.
