Abstract | According to Arvind G. N. Patel (2008), every year, billions dollars are invested in building new plant projects, revamping existing plants, improving safety and environmental compliance, and increasing system reliability in the hydrocarbon and related process industries. Today, projects must be delivered effectively in term of cost, time and quality. This scarcity of engineering resources affects every phase of the plant from conceptual design, construction, to operations and maintenance. Securing materials and labor to deliver projects or carry out maintenance is a critical success factor for businesses, and requires the efficient information sharing among the multi-disciplinary firms typically involved in this effort. In order to deliver cost and time of a project effectively, the feasibility study and definition phase should be prepared carefully and exactly. Definition phase, Front-End Engineering Design, will show us how a plant is designed, how much total cost investment is, what execution of project should be done in overall. The purpose of this report is to describe main activities in Front-End Engineering Design phase of an EPC project, which will help us to manage the process more effectively. |
