Kilburn Engineering Limited has announced the formation of a Joint Venture Company (JVC) with East End Technologies Pvt Ltd, an Odisha-based engineering and manufacturing firm, to jointly pursue mechanical site execution projects and expand Kilburn’s footprint in Eastern India. The Joint Venture, to be incorporated in Kolkata, will undertake activities such as piping fabrication and erection, structural fabrication and erection, equipment installation, and pre-commissioning support. The focus will be on servicing sectors including oil & gas, fertilizers, petrochemicals, and steel, with initial operations concentrated in Eastern India.
Until now, Kilburn has largely relied on third-party contractors for site-based mechanical fabrication and erection work. The new partnership marks a strategic move toward establishing a dedicated and scalable regional execution capability, enabling Kilburn to directly participate in site-intensive project bids while maintaining tighter control over safety, quality, schedules, and costs.
Established in 1999, East End Technologies Pvt Ltd is a recognized engineering and manufacturing company known for its expertise in designing and manufacturing furnace-related and specialized equipment for chemical plants and refineries. The company operates one of the largest manufacturing facilities in Eastern India and holds a dominant position in supplying furnace equipment to ferro-alloy plants in the region.
Beyond manufacturing, East End Technologies brings extensive experience in mechanical construction and site execution, including projects such as blast furnaces for steel plants, syngas plants for petrochemical applications, and sulphur recovery units for refineries. Its execution credentials include over 15,000 metric tonnes of structural and equipment erection and more than 20 lakh inch-meters of pipeline fabrication and erection, making it a strong regional execution partner.
Commenting on the announcement, Ranjit Lala, Managing Director, Kilburn Engineering Limited, said,
“This Joint Venture marks an important step in Kilburn’s expansion into site execution. Partnering with East End Technologies allows us to combine complementary strengths and build a strong platform for delivering complex site projects across the country.”
