Hector Castillo is a Senior Project Manager at TC Boiler & Piping with extensive experience leading complex mechanical, piping, boiler, and specialty fabrication projects across the U.S. Gulf Coast. His career is deeply rooted in the execution of high-stakes turnarounds, outages, and capital projects, where schedule certainty, quality control, safety, and cost management are non-negotiable.
Hector has successfully delivered projects for major operators and EPC clients including LyondellBasell, Enterprise Products, INEOS, Indorama, Air Products, Formosa Plastics, and other leading industrial facilities. His background spans refineries, chemical plants, power generation stations, gas processing units, and fabrication shops—giving him a practical, field-first understanding of both execution and project controls.
Known for building and managing large, multi-discipline teams, Hector ensures alignment across planning, field execution, quality, and cost. He places a strong emphasis on critical path scheduling, detailed work sequencing, and proactive constraint removal to maintain control of high-pressure projects—especially in volatile turnaround environments. His application of earned value tracking, productivity metrics, and forecast-to-complete analysis allows stakeholders to make confident, real-time decisions.
Hector brings deep expertise in project controls, including cost management, schedule recovery, risk mitigation, and change control. He works closely with field superintendents, planners, QC personnel, and client representatives to ensure project plans are both realistic and auditable—aligned with contractual obligations and regulatory codes.
With a strong technical foundation, Hector maintains working knowledge of ASME, API, and ASNT standards. He leads with a proactive approach to quality—prioritizing code compliance, traceability, and inspection readiness to ensure work is done right the first time and risk is mitigated downstream.
Hector’s leadership is rooted in accountability, transparency, and disciplined execution. He thrives in high-risk, fast-moving environments where scope evolution and aggressive timelines demand sharp judgment, clear communication, and steady hands.
