The Consultant

Four decades adhering to the highest global engineering standards.

Oswaldo Sabato is a mechanical engineer with a unique track record within the world's most demanding regulatory organizations. As a technical representative for HSB Global Standards—one of the most rigorous Authorized Inspection Agencies accredited by ASME—he served on the ABNT CB-04 committees, directly participating in the drafting and revision of the ABNT NBR 16035 standard, which defines the Brazilian requirements for manufacturing boilers and pressure vessels.

This unique position—bridging the mathematical rigor of international codes and the reality of the Brazilian industry—sets Sabato Engenharia apart from any generalist consultancy.
