At KBR, every successful partnership begins with understanding — not just the project scope, but our clients’ ambitions and long-term vision.

As the Tamil saying by Subramanya Bharathi reminds us: தூங்காதே விழித்திரு; தோற்காதே எழுச்சி கொள்! which reads “Thoongathey villithiru; Thoarkathey Eluchchi kol! — Sleep not, stay awake; never be defeated, rise with determination!

This spirit echoes in every project we undertake, every challenge we solve, and every future we build.

Innovation is one of the three essentials that make us stand apart. At KBR India, our teams brim with energy, passion, and enthusiasm. Some of our most impactful solutions have come not just from technology — but from rethinking how we apply it.

We don’t just deliver projects. We deliver possibilities.

Take our work in operations and maintenance — we’re helping clients drive efficiency through predictive analytics. Using advanced tools, we detect issues before they become problems, enabling our clients to act ahead of downtime, and these tools are being built by our colleagues working in our India offices. This isn’t a vision of the future — it’s happening right now.

From concept to commissioning, from vision to validation — we stand with our clients, turning ambition into accomplishment.

In our journey toward a sustainable world, our technologies like K-GreeN® green ammonia, Hydro-PRT® plastics recycling, and our carbon capture solutions are making real, measurable changes. We are redefining how clients transition to a low-carbon future.

Innovation also shines brightest during challenges. In 2023, during Cyclone Michaung, several areas in Chennai were inaccessible. One of our teams, working on a critical global project, quickly coordinated with the client and continued delivering the project from their homes. Despite the odds, the project was delivered on time with zero compromise on safety or quality. That’s the power of agile thinking, Zero Harm, and unwavering collaboration.

Excellence is our constant. One of our standout achievements is supporting one of the world’s largest green ammonia plants. KBR India provided detailed engineering and digital design using modularization, advanced simulation, and predictive analytics accelerating timelines and reducing cost and energy use. This project wasn’t just delivered; it set new industry standards.

Customer centricity is the third key aspect, which underpins our approach to business. A case in point is the way we strengthened our partnership with Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) by rising to the occasion. From 2017 to 2019, IOCL was preparing for Bharat Stage VI compliance. At their Mathura and Gujarat refineries, KBR India delivered customized Hydroprocessing and Alkylation technologies with minimal shutdowns. We didn’t just implement tech — we listened, understood constraints, respected cultural nuances, and collaborated deeply. The result? Projects delivered ahead of schedule, with reduced capex and enhanced reliability.

As the Upanishads say: Tamaso ma jyotir gamaya — Lead me from darkness to light.

Every solution we craft is a step toward that light, towards a world powered by smarter engineering, sustainable energy, and authentic collaboration.

At KBR, we don’t just build projects, we build possibilities.

The future isn’t something we wait for; it’s something we build together. With innovation, excellence, and relentless customer focus, we are shaping a world full of promise, progress, and purpose.

It’s been three years since I joined KBR, and I deeply believe in the words: Satyam eva jayate — Truth alone triumphs.

When innovation, excellence, and customer centricity are rooted in authenticity and integrity, success follows. That is KBR’s story, our story — and we invite you to walk with us into a future we’re building, together.

Let’s dare to dream. Let’s dare to innovate. And together, let’s build the future.
