Vista Projects is an integrated engineering firm who has been solving complex challenges in the energy industry since 1985. We are innovators at our core. We continually find better smarter ways to design and deliver oil and gas projects and we are proud to be contributing on some of the most exciting low-carbon and synthetic fuel developments in the North America. For our people that means meaningful varied work and a real chance to shape how modern engineering gets done.

We are innovators in the energy industry. We actively find ways to improve how oil and gas projects are designed and delivered and we are contributing to some remarkable low-carbon and synthetic fuel developments; including electro sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF) and gas-to-liquids (GTL) projects. We are headquartered in Calgary and maintain a satellite office in Houston.

The world needs energy and better engineering makes the projects that deliver it safer more efficient and more sustainable.
