Comment: This draft does not yet meet Wikipedia’s notability standards. Most sources are either authored by Tetra Engineering members or are brief mentions, so they do not count as independent secondary sources. Affiliated authors make a source primary, which cannot establish notability (see WP:THREE and WP:GNG). The article needs multiple reliable, independent secondary sources with significant coverage.

Tetra Engineering Group Inc. is a private engineering consultancy specializing in services for the power generation industry, with a focus on heat recovery steam generators (HRSGs) and steam cycle systems. Founded in 1988, the company is headquartered in Weatogue, Connecticut, United States, and operates regional offices in Valbonne, France, and Dubai, United Arab Emirates.[1] Its services include inspections, performance assessments, life-cycle management, and failure analysis for power plants worldwide.[2]
History
[edit]Tetra Engineering was founded in 1988 by engineers with prior experience in nuclear and fossil boiler design. Initially focusing on performance and reliability improvements in nuclear and coal-fired plants, the company shifted in the late 1990s to meet the growing demand for HRSG expertise.[3] In 1991, it opened a European office in Valbonne, France, and in 2014 expanded to the Middle East with a Dubai branch.[4]
Services
[edit]The firm provides consulting services for power plants and process industries in more than 50 countries.[5] Its offerings include:
- HRSG and boiler inspections: condition assessments and reliability studies.[6]
- Power piping services: examination and field testing for compliance and integrity.
- Failure analysis: root cause investigations of boiler and piping failures.[7]
- Software solutions: tools such as PipeVue for piping management and compliance.
Publications and contributions
[edit]Tetra Engineering has been cited in industry research and trade journals for its technical work on HRSG reliability and boiler tube failures.[8] Its engineers have authored or co-authored technical papers for the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)[9] and contributed to publications such as Power Engineering, POWER Magazine, and Engineering Failure Analysis.
Certification
[edit]The company holds the “R” Stamp for Design for Alterations issued by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors, authorizing it to perform modifications on boilers and pressure vessels built to ASME standards.[10]
