Morten Fabrin
Chief Executive Officer & President
We are now nearly 100 dedicated employees and a part of the Artelia Group with close to 6,000 employees based
in around 30 countries spread across Europe, Africa, Asia and the Americas.
We work within the company's four sectors:
BUILDING & INDUSTRY
OUTSOURCING
POWER & ENERGY
WATER & SANITATION
I strongly believe that we have something unique to offer our global clients.
We are working with a wide variety of international companies across the
globe and have excellent references from all continents.
We appreciate that a one-size-fits-all approach rarely applies, so we tailor our
services to the particular needs of each client. That, I believe, is one of our
major advantages, and I know for sure that our flexibility and willingness to
“go the extra mile” is valued by our clients.
Our office is in Manila, Philippines, but our staff is a combination of Filipino
and international professionals. This mix gives us the capability to adapt to
the quality requirements of our international clients in the most cost-efficient
way.
I believe we have highly skilled and dedicated employees who, with
international mindsets, are all eager to have new assignments and to create
value for our clients.
Our employees are our most important resource
We strongly believe that the best and most competent consulting requires dedicated employees, a positive
corporate culture and attractive working conditions. Through our highly specialized knowledge and experience,
we aim to create value for our customers that contributes to a more sustainable society and helps solve the
challenges of the future.
Corporate Social Responsibility
PTS supports the principles of the UN Global Compact and works to ensure respect for human and labor rights
and to ensure that the company acts responsibly in environmental matters. We focus on social development;
that's why we strive to maintain a position as one of the leading consultancies in responsible, sustainable and
innovative building and construction.
As a company we support the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development defined by the United Nations.

Paving the way
to a healthier society
PTS designed Eau de Coco’s home for cocounut processing
Tropical areas in Asia and Latin America have traditionally
been the primary sources of copra and oil prepared from
coconuts. Typically, coconut water has been only a beverage
among local people or an acquired taste for tourists. Today,
this sweet and nutty drink has made its way into the taste
of the world market.
Big players in the beverage industry have seen the potential
and made investments in the wonderful and delicious drink.
With the health enthusiasts lashing out at sugary drinks,
it’s no surprise that softdrink distributors like Coca-Cola and
Pepsi have also acquired their own lines of coconut water
drinks – a shrewd venture that has extended the product to
a much bigger market.
to the rich resources present locally. The Philippines now
produces over 15 billion coconuts per year which makes the
country a perfect venue for building EDC’s processing plant.
PTS was commissioned by EDC to carry out a feasibility
study, followed by the preliminary and detailed engineering
design of the coconut water processing plant to be located
in the Southern Tagalog mainland. We also provided model
generation, equipment and material procurement, project
management and construction supervision services.
With the launch of this manufacturing facility, comes the
society’s greater opportunity to stay fit and healthy!
However, cocunut water has generally been cast aside or, at
least, considered a backyard industry for sidewalk vendors
due to its inherent perishability and short shelf life.

Providing solutions
at every step
of the way
Viskase, PTS and the food service industry
From its inception as the inventor of cellulosic
casings to partner in the present complex
international processed meat trade, Viskase has
remained the industry’s leading provider of casing
and packaging of food products for 90 years.
Viskase manages a global sales and distribution
network that reaches virtually all nations of the
globe and employs over 2,000 personnel.
PTS was contracted by Viskase and took on the role
of Owner’s Representative for design and build of
the latter’s new manufacturing facility located
northwest of Manila, in the province of Pampanga.
The project was completed in 18 months, from
conceptualization to commissioning. The 8,000
sqm building was constructed on a land area of
approximately 40,000 sqm and was designed to
use a portal frame steel structure with Plaswalls.
The technology behind the production process is
very advanced and highly confidential, and since
the factory is producing perishable consumable
products, it requires constant humidity and
temperature control in combination with high
efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration to achieve
the highest level of food hygiene standards. Both
walls and ceilings are insulated to improve the
overall energy efficiency. The facility contains a
laboratory and office areas that are architecturally
appealing.
Other services that PTS provided in this project
were project management, environmental &
unexploded ordnance (UXO) investigations,
contract management, procurement services and
documentation.

OUTSOURCING
You can easily expand
your office at low cost
and low risk
Morten Fabrin
Business Line Manager of Outsourcing
We establish dedicated and tailored architectural/engineering teams for our clients in
six easy and simple steps.
By trusting PTS as your outsourcing provider, your business can enjoy
benefits such as reduced operating costs, increased technical support, and
a lot more, without compromising the quality of the designs.
The big question is of course: Why
should you setup a team of dedicated
engineers/architects with us in the
Philippines? We do not know the answer
to that, but what we hear from our
clients are:
• They are facing a shortage of
qualified manpower in their home
markets
• They experience difficulties in
matching the ever decreasing
market prices
• They see an opportunity in having
a flexible workforce that can be
adapted to the market situation
• They see a chance to expand their
workforce at a low price and with
a low risk
• They see an opportunity to invest
in research and development
The next question is: Why the
Philippines? More than 10 years ago
the founders of PacificTech Solutions
(PTS) chose to set up the company in
the Philippines for several really good
reasons. The major arguments were:
• The culture:
• The language:
• The education:
• The work environment:
• The cost-quality ratio:
And it is a fact that these were really
good reasons and these are exactly the
same reasons why we can recommend
the Philippines (and PTS) as an excellent
platform for your company.
The third question we are usually asked
is: What is the price level?
This question is really difficult to answer
as it really depends on the particular
requirements. For instance, a Civil
Engineer with 20 years of experience
is just much more expensive than a
freshly-graduated architect.
Let us know what are your objectives,
requirements and even your eventual
concerns. Let us have an open
discussion about how we can formulate
an outsourcing setup that is committed
and dedicated to work for your company.

and individual job, software and
hardware descriptions. We need to
be precise on the requirements.
HIRING
We now screen candidates based
on CVs, tests, background checks
and interviews. The client will
typically be part of the interview
procedure.
ONBOARDING AND
WORKING
The new employee will be
integrated into the PTS family, and
get the important network, and the
work can begin.
FOLLOW UP
Monthly evaluations will be held
for the first 6 months. After this
first period, annual evaluations
will be performed and individual
development programs will also be
reviewed.

PTS takes part in an
award-winning energy
project
Amager Bakke Steel Structures in the European Super League
"The multifunctional industrial design is an ambitious vision of
how a green energy plant can be combined with recreational
areas that encourage adventure, play and movement (...) the plant
exhibits a superb use of steel – both as visible material and as
optimised structural steel."
Thus wrote the judging committee when Amager Bakke was
awarded an Award of Merit by the European Convention for
Constructional Steelworks in 2017.
This is the second time the engineering aspects of the project
have been awarded. In 2015, the construction project also won
the Tekla Global BIM Award for the use of digital tools.
7,500 tonnes of steel
The challenges of the spectacular construction are certainly not
hard to spot. PacificTech Solutions has been designing industrial
plants including large steel structures for numerous years,
culminating with the involvement in this prestigious project in
Denmark. However, this is the first time we have helped to create
a ski slope. The roof slopes in all directions to make it perfect
for skiing. The city park is also designed to accommodate up to
1,500 people. Therefore, the roof requires equal parts of flexibility
and robustness. The extensive experience in steel design and
detailing of PacificTech Solutions Senior Tekla Designer Erwin
Espiritu was utilized to achieve delivery of this project.
Street kitchen on the top of Copenhagen
In addition to the famous ski slopes, space has been provided for a
viewing platform, activity trails, a street kitchen and an 85-metre
climbing wall on the side of the building.
"One of our tasks has been to model and produce connection
detail drawings of the steel structures using the latest BIM
features of the Tekla software. Being constantly up to date
with the latest trends and technologies is what kept us
ahead to deliver this magnificent project", concludes Erwin
Espiritu.

Client MOE A/S
Architect Herzog & De Meuron, Vilhelm Lauritzen
New North Zealand Hospital is undeniably
outstanding for its unique design and
technical advancement
”The level of ambition when it comes to indoor climate
and energy is very high. The hospital must be constructed
according to building class 2020 and there are stringent
demands regarding the indoor climate. This must then
be adapted to an equally ambitious architecture whose
unique form of expression dictates that all rooms are
unique. The rooms are oriented differently so that sunlight
can enter from all angles and many rooms face gardens
with varying degrees of shadow. This is a complex series
of factors to harmonise as we try to secure the perfect
balance between daylight, a healthy indoor climate and
energy consumption. We have worked on a broad range of
initiatives to optimise the facade. We have had to locate
the right size windows and solutions for how canopies and
slats can provide the necessary shade.”
- PETER HESSELHOLT,
CORPORATE TECHNICAL DIRECTOR, MOE A/S
Who says prestige couldn’t be inexpensive? At PTS,
quality is not compromised by the price of the services
we provide.
MOE A/S, as one of our biggest clients, attested that at
PTS, it is doable to produce high quality services at cost
effective rates.
MOE A/S is the 5th largest engineering consultancy in
Denmark and we have been continuously working with
their teams since 2012. One of the projects was the New
Hospital North Zealand or as we call it, ”NHN”.
NHN was carefully planned to serve more than 310,000
people in Hillerød, Denmark. PTS was part of this project
from preliminary roads and utilities design to final
pathways, parking areas and drainage networks.
PTS participated with more than 4,000 man hours on
this prestigious project. It included among other tasks,
development design, BIM modelling, drafting, utilities,
clashes resolution and bill of quantities preparation.
Drawing on many years of experience, the Outsourcing
Business Line is extremely proud of this project delivery;
representing a great achievement in the civil engineering
outsourcing process.
”Engaging PTS on this prestigious project has made
a major impact on completing it on time and in a costeffective
manner."

A decade
with Atkins
A happy customer always comes back
– PTS and Atkins together in delivering
affordable oil and gas to the world market
For the past ten years, PTS and Atkins have been continuously
working with one another over a series of projects. This relationship
began in 2007 when Atkins contracted PTS for a gas rig rendering
project in the North Sea for one of the largest oil and gas company
in the Nordics – Maersk Oil. PTS played an important role in the
development of 3D models and the rendering of said gas rig as the
basis for carrying out analysis and visualization of various structural
configurations of a new type of production gas rig. Piping layouts,
isometrics and instrumentation diagrams were also prepared by
PTS including drafting tasks. From there on, Atkins has always
considered PTS as one of its partners in bringing structures which
benefit the global market.
PTS continued to be part of Atkins team. This time,
the role was to generate a common documentation
system for Maersk Oil operation in the British sector
of the North Sea.
PTS was then involved in another gas rig project of
Maersk Oil in the Harald West Field. This project was
the conversion of the production gas rig from high to
low pressure operation for which Atkins tasked PTS
to prepare object databases, structural drawings,
generation of material take-offs and design of
platform structures. Two resident engineers from
PTS were seconded to Atkins Danmark’s field office in
Esbjerg for this purpose.
Maersk Oil started two new platforms namely Ada
1 and Ada 2. Atkins and PTS worked together again
on this project. PTS provided 3D animated videos for
marketing purposes.
Furthermore, PTS was contracted again by Atkins
for the Tyra East and West Flare Systems. The
assignment included the deployment of one Senior
3D Designer to Aalborg, Denmark to carry out 3D
modeling of structures. On the other hand, the 2D
detailed drawings were done by the team in Manila.
PTS provided design support services for a project in
the Tyra North Oil and Gas Field. Included here was
the production of 3D model of structures and a piping
system for certification purposes and conceptual
engineering design.
With all these works successfully completed, PTS and
Atkins developed a relationship that showcases both
professionalism and excellence.

Public Authority for Applied Education and Training
Client SSH International Consultants
It is not a secret that education is a human need and not just an accessory
to flaunt. Countries treat education differently. The Government of
Kuwait has set solid emphasis on education. Their 1962 Constitution
which stipulates that education is guaranteed and promoted by the
State itself mirrors the conviction that education is a fundamental right
of all citizens. Therefore, their education policy tries to give chance to
all children, irrespective of their social status including children with
special needs. In acknowledgement of the effort Kuwait made in this
field, the UNDP in its 2018 report ranked Kuwait 56th on the Human
Development Index.
The improvement of the Kuwaiti educational system might be attributed,
to a great extent, to the riches that oil assets have brought to the nation
and this complements the pragmatic policy of the government to give
international standard education to all endeavoring Kuwaitis.
In line with this aspiration, the Public Authority for Applied Education
and Training or PAAET was established in 1982. This institution for
vocational and technical training has two objectives: to provide and
develop skills of the national labor force to meet the demands of a
developing country and the other is to provide training to students to
have career beyond the oil industry.
A higher standard of
education
Better education for Kuwaitis
In 2015, SSH was awarded the contract for the design and construction
supervision of the technology, business, healthcare and education
complex located in the Jahra Governorate by the PAAET. The project
covers a built up area of 230,000 sqm consisting of four educational
clusters and administration buildings.
In 2017, SSH commissioned PTS to provide consultancy engineering
services for this project particularly the preliminary mechanical and
electrical modelling.
The campus was tagged to be the landmark along the western route to
Kuwait City with high standard facilities and will reduce travel time for
the increasing number of students in nearby areas.
PTS is pleasured to be part of this salient educational project which
contributes to the social development of Kuwait.

development of water sources into sustainable energy.
Our client, Kiangan Mini Hydro

Optimizing natural
resources is the key
Dupinga Mini Hydropower Plant answers the increasing energy demand
in Central Luzon
PTS' engineers provided complete and complex
solutions for the development of the Dupinga
Mini Hydropower Plant. We explored all
technical and commercial options in favor of
realizing the project and on that background,
has been appointed the Owner's Engineer in its
realization.
The project started in 2013 and is still ongoing at
the moment. PTS performed numerous services
for this project including the revalidation &
evaluation of original hydrology study for
Dupinga River, evaluation of the conceptual
design, value engineering, detailed engineering
design (DED), tender preparation & evaluation
of construction, construction supervision,
schedule & finance management of contractor’s
works, supply & installation contracts, and
testing & commissioning.
It is beyond doubt that energy needs are increasing
over time; not just in the Philippines but all throughout
the world. On the other hand, Earth’s fossil energy
resources are depleting fast enough to cause energy
shortages in various places. These are compound
issues which require skill from experienced specialists
and multidisciplinary comprehensive solutions. These
are some of the reasons why it is a necessity to look
for alternative energy sources.
Dupinga Mini Hydropower Plant will surely contribute
in finding a solution to such energy shortage problem.
In addition, it is proven that hydropower plants produce
a number of side benefits such as flood control,
irrigation and water supply. As hydropower is fueled
by water, it is a clean fuel source, meaning it cannot
pollute the air as can power plants that burn fossil
fuels, such as coal or natural gas. Hydroelectric power
is a domestic source of energy, allowing each region or
province to produce their own energy without being
reliant on international fuel sources.

from LTA's point of view, the Revised Design of
the Dupinga HPP is state-of-the-art design for

into three phases, the Bangui Bay Wind Farm consists a total
of 26 wind turbines capable of producing electricity up to a
maximum total generating capacity of 41 MW. The "Windmills"
supply more than 40% of Ilocos Norte’s electricity through its
connection to the Luzon Grid.
Dubbed as ”clean and green”, it is a turning point that kicked
off the initiative of the government for energy projects
accross the nation to cut down the dependency on prevailing
generating systems using imported fossil fuels. This project
helped in minimizing the cost of electricity consumption in
favor of the customers within the Ilocos region.
PTS was contracted by Northwind Power
Development Corporation (NPDC) for consultancy
services as Owner’s Representative during the third
phase of the project. We performed a number of tasks
including the design of infrastructure which included
roads and hardstands - to facilitate the installation
of additional six wind turbines. Project management,
construction management, and contract & finance
management were also done.
It is of great pleasure for PTS to be a part of this
milestone in the renewable energy sector in the
Philippines.

Power can be generated in many ways and in
different methods and techniques e.g. hydro,
wind, coal, thermal, nuclear, machinery, etc.
Here in PTS, we engage in not just one power
generation method, we work over and across
various power production techniques.
In 2015, Stellar Energy Technologies contracted
PTS to provide structural engineering assessment
for San Lorenzo and Santa Rita Gas Turbine Power
Plants located in Batangas City. The project was
in preparation for the upgrade of the cooling
system for six gas turbines installed to increase
power generation capacity.
PTS delivered a chain of services including
document review, verification of data against
actual installations, elaboration of the structural
model and testing of reactions on the foundations
against drawings.

The San Lorenzo Power Plant played a critical
role in establishing the Philippine natural gas
industry. It is a beneficiary of the country’s
first natural gas production facility, in Palawan
(developed by Shell).

Help save the world
by minimizing waste
and recycling
resources
Disposal of industrial liquid waste has the potential for a
catastrophic impact on the environment if appropriate
measures are not put in place to protect water bodies upon
which the natural food chain depends.
EnviroSolutions & Consulting (ESC) is dedicated to providing
solutions to environmental problems including waste
disposal and greenhouse gas emissions. ESC has offices
located in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Hongkong.
In 2017, ESC commissioned PTS to provide consultancy
engineering services for a bio-diesel plant in Singapore. This
project was intended to evaluate options for an industrial
effluent treatment system in
order to meet off-site treatment
parameter requirements.
Services provided by PTS included the update of the basis
of design (BOD) incorporating further laboratory analysis
and the preparation of a pre-feasibility study to evaluate
options.
This project showcased a responsible industry action, aiming
to contribute to sustainable development by recycling
treated wastewater within the production process. PTS is
pleased to be part of such a project; one that may contribute
to saving the environment.

Wastewater treatment
and how it is beneficial
With water shortages afflicting the world, water
scarcity has turned out to be one of the biggest
dangers facing society today, making it one of the
focal points of the United Nations Development
Programme (UNDP). Therefore, countries have
started to develop new projects and technologies
to alleviate its impacts on the world. Such projects
and technologies include rain harvesting, water
location transfers, desalination and wastewater
treatment. In contrast to the rest, wastewater
treatment presents a sustainable short and longterm
solution to water scarcity.
In 2016, EnviroSolutions & Consulting, Pte.
Ltd. (ESC) contracted PTS to provide consulting
engineering services for an existing wastewater
collection and treatment system for Coilcraft, Inc.
In Meixian, China.
PTS provided solutions to cross contamination
issues during flooding at the company’s
production facility including overflowed water
treatment plant, discharged water index out of
specification for Ph level, biochemical oxygen
demand, chemical oxygen demand, etc.
We carried out site assessment and investigation
services including reporting. The report contained
details of the findings on the current system and
of the assessment and verification activities plus
recommendations for the future of the wastewater
collection and treatment system.
This project ensured the continuous operation of
said plant to continue treatment of wastewater
before returning it to the environment.
A sustainable short and long-term answer for the world’s water crisis.
