Who we are
Venezuelan company founded in 1999. We evolved from civil works to engineering and technology integration for the oil, gas and mining industries.
Xacobeo Group Latam is a Venezuelan company founded in 1999, with more than 25 years of track record in the industrial sector. We began with civil works and strategically evolved into engineering and technology integration solutions for the Oil & Gas and Mining industries.
Our team combines more than 35 years of experience in petroleum terminal projects, metering systems, process automation and industrial control. This track record allows us to understand the real needs of the Venezuelan market and deliver practical, effective solutions.
We stand out for our participation in critical infrastructure engineering projects, such as PDVSA's José Antonio Anzoátegui Crude Storage & Loading Terminal (TAECJAA), where we executed the extended basic engineering (FEED) with scope covering the South Platform and the loading monobuoy.

Vision
To be the reference industrial integration channel in Venezuela, the Caribbean and Guyana — recognized by buyers and manufacturers for the same reason: evidence and discipline.
Values
Technical independence · verifiable evidence · local support · regulatory compliance.
