“tQ AUTOMATION, LLC brings the experience of a large global company with the flexibility and high quality of service of a medium-sized company. Our engineers and consultants have worked in some of the largest companies in the world. Hence, they have the experience of delivering complex solutions globally.
We understand the limitations of these large firms. At tQ Automation, we bring a balance of large company experience and small company intimacy and quality.”
About Us
We are a unique digital and technology solution provider because we bring the best of both worlds: highly experienced engineers who understand what technical solutions work in challenging field situations and seasoned business consultants who combine their field experience and change management background to help you realize the benefits of a complex technical solution.
What this means is that our consultants have been in the field commissioning equipment, starting-up a plant, working turnarounds, working night shifts or manning an offshore platform. We are field operatives who have rolled up our sleeves and turned valves and troubleshot artificial lift controllers, renewable energy units and control systems in the jungles of Borneo, on remote islands in Europe and Asia, in the deserts of Kuwait and Oman, on the plains of the California Coast, in the West Texas oil patch or on the offshore platforms in Abu Dhabi. We have worked across the globe from Port-of-Spain, Trinidad and Houston, Texas to Portugal, Muscat, Oman and Jakarta, Indonesia.
tQ Automation has delivered projects to major clients throughout the globe. We have been entrusted to solve some of our client’s most difficult issues.
Our Values
Trust
Our company was built on integrity and high quality service. These values are not just applied to the way we work with our customers, but these values apply to our supplier relations and to how we treat our employees, investors and business partners.
Trust is not just a slogan or cliché, rather it is inculcated in our culture and the way we do business.
Let us be your Trusted Advisor!
Collaboration
From our experience, we understand that sustainable change does not come about by a team of consultants working in isolation. Effective business transformation requires us to work hand-in-hand with your management team and engineers to not only understand the nuances and intricacies of your specific business challenges, but also to jointly identify and evaluate practical solutions and associated risks. By collaborating with your team, we leverage our wealth of experience and know-how with your internal knowledge and understanding to create sustainable improvements and change.
Partnership
Our goal is to establish a partnership with your business where we grow together and benefit from common goals and objectives. It is not our policy or interest to be a one-and-done type company.
We believe in building a business relationship that will last and where we both enjoy the benefits of a mutually beneficial partnership!
Our Approach
At tQ Automation, we realize the benefits of innovation and the potential advantages that innovative digital oilfield solutions can bring to a business.
However, we also understand there are inherent risks with introducing new solutions to an existing business issue. Hence, it is critical to bring innovative solutions while considering the risk-reward scenarios to deliver maximum benefits at minimal risk.
Our approach with innovation has been to be aggressive while proceeding with caution. We are aggressive in generating innovating ideas and ‘out of the box’ solution options. Then we develop an approach to introduce these innovative solutions with caution to test and evaluate before implementing at scale.
This approach is particularly appreciated in the energy industry where a single day of lost production can result in millions of dollars in lost revenue.
To keep our customers at the leading edge and above their competition, we help our clients identify innovative digital oilfield solutions. But then we support our customers thoroughly evaluate the benefits and risks before fully implementing these new solutions.

tQ Automation, LLC has been awarded a grant from the US Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) for a Feasibility Study to assess the potential deployment of renewable energy mini-grids to five (5) sites in eastern Indonesia. The results of the study will help PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) assess the economic and technical feasibility for developing a hybrid renewable power plant at these 5 locations. This project supports PLN’s energy transition program to convert over 5000 diesel generators to cleaner energy sources as Indonesia pushes to achieve its green energy targets.
“We are happy to be able to bring our automation, engineering, and renewable energy expertise to support PLN in assessing these 5 sites and facilitating their de-dieselization program,” said tQ Automation Managing Partner, Iqbal Latheef. The 5 sites are in some of Indonesia’s more remote regions and present a particular challenge for energy transition. “Beyond the technical challenges, we are particularly excited for the social impact and positive changes these remote communities will experience when they have access to reliable, clean, 24-hour electricity. It’s a life changer for most of them,” said tQ Automation Managing Partner, Irwan Tantu.
tQ Automation will be partnering with the US Department of Energy’s National Laboratories and PT Atelir Alad Aditama to deliver this project. We thank the USTDA for their generous support and funding for this study.
