Chicago Bridge & Iron Company Description
Contrary to its name, Chicago Bridge & Iron Company (CB&I) doesn't build iron bridges in Chicago. It is a global specialty engineering and construction company that maintains liquefied natural gas storage tanks; petrochemical and gas processing plants; steel pressure vessels for high-temperature applications; and heat transfer equipment. Major customers in each of these operating segments include CNOOC, Valero, Chevron, and SABIC. The company also serves other large corporations in the hydrocarbon, energy, power generation, and petrochemical industries. Although it does about one-third of its business in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), almost half of CB&I's revenues come from North America.
