Engineering Design

The team at Petro Min Engineers deliver complete engineering design services across the Australian industrial sector.
Our engineers use computer aided drafting in either AutoCAD or Microstation formats, providing documentation in the Microsoft Windows suite of software including Word, Excel, Power Point, Publisher and Access.
For project scheduling and management Petro Min Engineers uses Microsoft Project.
