Keller Group
Oil, gas, and chemical facilities often require geotechnical solutions to be executed within constrained, security‑sensitive, and highly regulated sites. Keller works closely with owners, engineers, and contractors to safely install new foundations, remediate existing systems, and support facility expansions while maintaining operational continuity.
Geotechnical construction solutions for oil, gas, and chemical facilities
Keller offers a broad range of geotechnical construction techniques tailored to oil, gas, and chemical facility applications. Our integrated design‑build approach enables us to develop constructible, cost‑effective solutions tailored to site‑specific conditions and operational constraints. Our design engineers are familiar with the relevant codes, such as API, used to design these facilities.
Using limited‑access equipment, Keller installs drilled deep foundations and applies grouting techniques in tight and congested areas. These solutions support new equipment, process units, and structural upgrades while limiting disruption to surrounding operations and infrastructure.
Keller's experience in safety-critical environments
Keller has completed hundreds of oil, gas, and chemical projects and understands the safety culture that is integral to this market. Our teams are familiar with applicable industry codes and facility requirements and prioritize safe execution in every phase of work.
This experience enables Keller to deliver reliable geotechnical solutions within operational facilities while maintaining consistent quality, compliance, and performance.
Sector challenges we can solve
- Foundation support within existing, operating facilities
- Settlement and bearing capacity concerns beneath process units and structures
- Limited access and restricted working space
- Remediation of distressed or aging foundations
- Compliance with industry standards and facility safety protocols
