Frequently Asked questions
Nexta is well known for providing quick project estimates for:
- Gas treatment and compression process equipment and process interconnexion cost and schedules.
- Offshore infrastructure for oil & gas green projects or expansion configurations cost and schedule comparisons.
- Source EPC contracting services in Colombia and Venezuela.
Nexta, finds technical resources by maintaining close relationships with various communities and individuals. One of these communities is the northern Latin American engineering community. Additionally, Nexta has strong connections with alumni from both Universidad Simon Bolivar in Venezuela and MIT, as well as former engineers from PDVSA and Ecopetrol.
Nexta has vast experience with MS Office software tools (Incl. MS Project and MS Visio), IHS Markit QUE$TOR onshore / offshore / Regas, Witness Business Simulation (Lanner), Hysis (ASPEN), Finite Element Method tools (ANSYS Solid Mech - CFD), Autodesk software tools (ACAD - Inventor) and Google Sketchup. Nexta also produces purpose made web pages for clients. This web Page was made at the office from a template. See also in "Products the LNG Calculator".
Nexta's founder was involved in the early MIT offshore structures and ocean engineering research group (1978 - 1980). Thereafter, a series of subjects on structural dynamics, offshore engineering and logistic business modelling were developed during yrs 1980 - 1989.
