HB Grupo is a mexican company that began operations in 1987, integrating a group of professionals committed to the values of honesty, loyalty and professionalism, which continue to be the foundation for the growth and expansion of the group to this day.
Beginning as a civil works construction company, over the years, it has established itself as a company specialized in maritime construction, standing out in areas such as the construction of docks, maritime terminals, breakwaters, dredging and beach protection and recovery.
Throughout this time, we have consolidated an area of specialized services in maritime facilities, such as CALM type monobuoys, multiboy terminals and specialized docks for loading and unloading of petroleum products at storage terminals. These services include the loading/unloading operation of the tanker, starting from its arrival, maintaining control throughout the operation and ending with the vessel’s departure.
In addition, HB Grupo offers routine, preventive and corrective maintenance services to guarantee the correct operation of the loading and unloading systems. These services include hoses, chains, buoys, monobuoys, plem, piping, loading arms, tanker unloading racks, among other elements that are part of the system.
One of our main specialties is major maintenance (overhaul), which is performed on monobuoys. This procedure consists of removing the monobuoy to dry dock to carry out a major repair of all the components that make it up, in order to guarantee its correct operation and, in a comprehensive manner, to extend its useful life. Our experience of having performed more than 15 monobuoy overhauls, including the entire unloading system, makes us a market leader and a strategic partner for our clients.
All the services we perform are in accordance with the highest quality standards in the industry, with certified personnel and equipment. We follow manufacturers’ recommendations, international industry guidelines and always align ourselves with the particular regulations of each country’s governmental agencies.
Nowadays, the industry faces a strong commitment with the environment. In HB Grupo, we are convinced that the correct maintenance of the facilities guarantees that operations are carried out safely, avoiding accidents that could put the environment, human life and facilities at risk.
As part of our growth plans, and with the support of strategic allies, HB Grupo has undertaken its expansion into South America, with the objective of meeting the needs of our expertise in the region. Currently, we are present in Lima, Peru, being this our starting point to serve the entire region.
