The PETROTEC Group is made by PETROTEC – Assistência Técnica ao ramo Petrolífero, S.A.

Following the market’s evolution, soon Petrotec widened its offer, having obtained in 1984 the approval for the manufacturing of pumps for liquid fuel by the Portuguese Ministry of Industry.
In 1985 it started its industrialization process for electronic fuel pumps, under the licence of the Dutch brand KOPPENS AUTOMATIC, leader in Europe and USA, consolidating its position as the only national manufacturer. From then on some of the major clients started including names as PETROGAL, SHELL, BP, MOBIL, and afterwards, with new players on the market, with ESSO, CEPSA, TOTAL, REPSOL, etc.
Post-service is largely assured both technically and logistically by PETROASSIST – Assistência Electrónica, S.A. – that, with an up-to-date vehicle fleet, allows the immediate solving of any problem. |
