The Pörner Group is a technology orientated, engineering and contracting company working on projects for the process industry. The headquarters are situated in Vienna, Austria. The group of companies specialises in various engineering industries such as oil refineries, chemical plants, petrochemical plants, gas plants, power generation, industrial production and the pharmaceutical industry. The organization is made up of a network of several medium-sized companies in these industries. ==History== The Pörner Group was founded by Kurt Thomas Pörner. Who began the Pörner Technical Bureau in 1972. The company grew from there, opening its first subsidiary in Linz in 1975. In the 1970s Pörner Ingenieurgesellschaft mbH, situated in Vienna Austria, acquired the rights to licence the Biturox process for upgrading bitumen by means of selective air oxidation developed by the Austrian oil company OMV. Pörner licensed its first Biturox plant to NIOC Isfahan in Iran. By the year 2013 a further 40 licences were granted to oil refining companies.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bitumen by Biturox®: Biturox® Home )〕 In parallel with the rapid growth of the industry in Europe and worldwide, in the 1980s the Pörner Group expanded and realized several larger projects for refineries as well as for environmental facilities. In 1992 the Pörner Group opened its first foreign subsidiary in Grimma, Germany which started out as a full branch for engineering services and now specialises in process plants for the chemical industry. Shortly thereafter another Austrian subsidiary in Kundl, Tyrol was founded to supply the pharmaceutical industry, energy supply and industrial building services in the area. In 2003 the Pörner group acquired 100% shares in EDL Anlagenbau Gesellschaft, a Leipzig, Germany based company. EDL specializes in refinery, chemical, petrochemical and gas sector clients.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=E2 Engineering-Times )〕 In 2005 the Pörner Bitumen Packing System was launched and earned the Pörner Group the Austrian State Prize for Consulting. The system allows bitumen to be packed and transported by alternative means, rather than the traditional way of long distance bulk transportation〔Bitumen#Production〕(see Asphalt). The Bitumen Bag, developed by Pörner, is different because the bitumen can be cooled, packed and transported by conventional transport methods as a solid product and melted at the point of delivery with the melting units. Rather than being constantly heated as with current Bitumen transportation. If traditional methods of hot transportation cannot take place due to poor infrastructure or difficult to reach places these bags can be used.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BITUMENA )〕 Gazintek was the next acquisition for the Pörner Group, with the company buying 70% of the shares in 2005 and the remainder in 2007. Gazintek is mainly focused on providing detailed engineering services for the gas industry. Gazintek does business with European and Russian companies who have world-wide interests including Africa and Asia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】date=22 November 2007 )〕 The Pörner group then set its sights on Romania and founded subsidiaries in Bucharest and Ploesti, in 2006, focusing on engineering of process plants to service the refineries in the area. In 2012 Pörner celebrated its 40th anniversary and their subsidiary, EDL celebrated its 20th anniversary. Pörner granted its 46th Biturox® licence in 2014.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bhutan’s road ahead begins in Kerala - The Times of India )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Poerner Engineering」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
