FRONT END ENGINEERING DESIGN

During the FEED phase, the project schedule, tendering philosophy, risk mitigation strategy, work break down structure and detailed cost estimates are developed to plan the procurement and construction phase. All of the process engineering is completed along with the mechanical engineering requirements necessary to proceed to the Detailed Engineering and Construction phase.

The FEED deliverables include the following:

  • Final Heat and Material Balances (H&MB’s)
  • Equipment sizing, materials of construction and design temperatures and pressures.
  • Process control requirements, including any analyzers, programmable logic controllers, safety instrumented systems, etc.
  • Piping and Instrument Diagrams (P&ID’s)
  • Plot Plan
  • Process safety contingency analyses
  • Utility loads (e.g., steam, cooling water, waste water treating, etc.)
  • Interconnections with other units (onsite and offsite)
