NEW ORLEANS—(March 1, 2018)—M S Benbow & Associates (MSB), a leading design and engineering firm serving the industrial, government, institutional and energy sectors, is celebrating 40 years of continued growth as a privately owned professional engineering corporation in 2018.

MSB was founded in 1978 by Michael S. Benbow, P.E., with the mission to provide engineering, technical and project support services for the Gulf South’s growing oil and gas industry.

The firm provides specialized engineering services in electrical power systems, instrumentation and controls, telecommunications and technology, and support services including drafting and design, project / construction management, and technical field support and maintenance.
