About Us
Venturi Engineering Solutions is an engineering firm specializing in energy based data analytics, optimization and hydraulic modelling.
In the heart of Edmonton, Canada, nestled within a humble tire garage, two friends and engineers, Anthony and Justin, set out on a mission. They envisioned more than just an engineering firm, they dreamed of a company that would redefine how energy is transported.
The goal was clear: to pave the way for a better future where the planet’s resources are used wisely and efficiently. From the very beginning, Venturi was driven by a belief that there was a better way. They knew that energy transportation could be improved – optimizing pipelines and terminal systems, minimizing leaks and cutting greenhouse gas emissions. With this vision in mind, they started a journey of innovation and optimization.
Their breakthrough came in 2015 when they secured their first client, a major oil and gas company. With pipeline simulations and process optimization, Venturi tackled complex transportation challenges, proving their methods’ worth. Their success with this project led to another major player joining their client list.
As their reputation grew, so did Venturi. The team expanded, bringing together talented individuals who shared their passion for engineering. Every new person joining played a vital role in the company’s success, each adding unique perspectives, creative ideas, and a deep commitment to the mission. But their impact extended far beyond the workplace. They also made a difference in their community, planting trees, volunteering at animal shelters, donating blood, and more.
Today, Venturi is a trusted partner to over a dozen oil and gas companies in North America. They’ve logged more than 100,000 project hours and developed a software that uses machine learning to provide real-time recommendations for pipeline optimization. Their journey, from a garage start-up to a trusted name in the industry, reflects their dedication to both innovation and the planet.
