Independent engineering consultancy

Independent Thinking.
Engineered Outcomes.

We're an independent, multidisciplinary engineering consultancy for energy, industrial, mining and infrastructure projects. We're at our best on first-of-kind, high-hazard and regulated work, where the engineering has to be right.

Who we are

We're the engineering consultancy clients call when they need real technical depth, and someone who'll stay in the detail from start to finish.

We stay with a project from the first feasibility study to the day it's handed over to operations.

We work as designers, owner's engineers, independent advisors or part of your delivery team, on projects where a mistake is expensive or unsafe.

One team, every discipline

No outside consultants to coordinate and no gaps between disciplines. Our engineers, drafters and project managers work as one team, with one point of accountability.

  1. Mechanical & piping engineering

    Pressure systems, piping design and stress, vendor packages and pressure equipment compliance.

  2. Process & chemical engineering

    Process design and simulation, P&IDs, safety in design, HAZOP.

  3. Electrical & power systems

    HV, MV and LV design, hazardous area classification, electrical compliance and grid connection.

  4. Controls & instrumentation

    Control system design, E&I installation and testing, functional safety.

  5. Systems engineering

    Requirements, interfaces and numerical modelling, bringing vendor packages together into one working plant.

  6. Project & construction management

    Owner's engineering, schedule, cost and quality, contractor oversight through to commissioning.

Why clients work with us

Clients engage Amarna when they need real technical depth, not a slide deck. We do the calculations ourselves, and we stay on the job from feasibility to commissioning.

  1. We still do the engineering

    Our senior engineers still do the engineering: detailed calculations, CFD and multi-physics modelling, and design checks against how the plant will really run. Larger firms often subcontract this work or skip it.

  2. No ties to any supplier

    We don't sell equipment, we have no tied contractors and we take no commissions. Our advice is about what's right for your project, nothing else.

  3. In new energy since 2019

    We've been working on hydrogen, biomethane and biofuel projects since 2019, before most of today's players arrived. We've already learned what works on these plants, and what doesn't.

  4. You deal with the engineers

    You deal directly with the engineers doing the work. We work inside your team and answer for the result.

  5. AI does the grunt work, engineers decide

    We use AI-assisted tools for the heavy lifting on document review, data analysis and interface checks, so more of your budget goes on engineering judgement. Every technical decision is still made, checked and signed off by our engineers.

    How we use digital tools

Recent work

From a 20 MW test facility for Stanwell to zero-emission mine haul trucks and heavy vehicle charging depots.
