About ScopePlex

What ScopePlex is

Each week we read public permit filings and registrations and send the ones a shop can act on. Each project in the brief shows:

The owner when the filing names one
Who is likely building it when a source names them
What a fabricator or supplier could sell
The next date to watch
A link to the agency filing

If we cannot link a fact to an agency filing, it does not go in the brief. Read an issue to see the format. Browse the project index, Texas, Louisiana, or the filing tracker.

The database

The paid Gulf Coast database puts every Texas and Louisiana industrial project we track in one table, filterable by sector, county, agency and open comment or hearing deadline, with each filing linked. It is $79 a month billed annually, or $129 month to month. See pricing and request access. The weekly, the public filing tracker and project pages stay free.

Who it is for

People who sell into Texas and Louisiana industrial work:

Owners and developers
EPCs and engineers
Consultants and investors
Fabricators
Vessel and spool shops
Structural steel suppliers
Equipment suppliers and reps

Sources

Public records only. The weekly and tracker are built from these agencies and city filings:

Method

We start from the filing, not from a press release. A draft permit is labeled as a draft. Confirmed parties are those named on the record. Inferred parties are labeled as inferred and cited. Private person names from owner-of-record fields are not shown on public pages.

Built by Hylex

ScopePlex is built by Hylex Energy Consulting. Hylex supports energy and process projects with fabrication, supply and procurement. ScopePlex is how we track what is getting permitted on the Gulf Coast, and we share it free every week.

Questions go to the contact page. If a project page is wrong, Request a correction. We fix cited facts from the agency record.
