Project Engineering Process


Conceptual Design (CD)
The conceptual design is a study phase in which ideas and alternatives are evaluated Preliminary study performed to define: Purpose of plant/project Location of plant Overall cost of plant (+/- 30%) deliverables will typically include : Technology selection report with main process parameters defined (overall plant production/capacity, future expansion requirements etc.) Preliminary Heat Material and Energy Balance (HMEB) overall cost estimate.

Project Engineering Process

Basic design (BD)


The basic design is the elaboration of the conceptual design into a package, defining the process requirements and the associated equipment and project facilities Cost estimate may typically be refined to +/- 10% Furthermore this is the start up package for Detailed Design (DD). In this package may also be used as a tender package for a Design/Construction Contract.

Project Engineering Process


Typical deliverables will include: Process Flow Diagrams P&ID's Process simulations/calculations as required to complete the above. Equipment Lists Line Lists Instrument lists Site Plans Plot Plan's (The overall layout approved - this is also required for) Preliminary Equipment specifications (datasheets) Other overall layouts which may impact process design (e.g. Hazardous area classification drawings, Fire zone layouts which may dictate shut down valve requirements etc.)

Methods of color measurement


All of these drawings should preferably be finalised to status AFD (Approved For Design) which means that they are completed in all aspects except for what will be decided in the Detailed Design phase (vents/drains, vendor data etc.) When I say preferably, this is because depending on project/company strategy, it may well be decided to issue the BD package with a level of completion lower than AFD. For piping layout design, the BD phase will include mainly piping studies which are conducted in order to: -prove the overall layout -define space requirements for main pipe racks -define basic routing of distribution headers so these can be sized

Detailed Design

All further design is developed until it reaches AFC status


(Approved for Construction). For process design (assuming the BD outcome was status AFD) remaining work will be limited to verifying that the actual piping layout, the equipment purchased etc is in line with the present process design and incorporate any updates required. Typically procurement of main equipment takes place during the detailed design stage and this requires interaction from the process

engineer as well as other disciplines.

Significant Cost saving


Eliminating of unnecessary water sparing in the centrifugal
(factory has reported savings of USD 1100 per day, solely by reducing unnecessary water spraying)
