FEED
Front-End Engineering Design
Define the project precisely enough to sanction it with confidence.
Once a project is feasible, FEED defines the scope, cost and schedule precisely enough for a sanction decision. We produce the drawings, specifications and estimates your board needs to commit CAPEX with confidence.
When you need this
Typical trigger points
- A feasible concept needs a Class-3 estimate for sanction.
- Licensor or concept-level P&IDs exist but the execution basis does not.
- A credible HAZOP and SIL basis is needed before detailed design begins.
What's included
Deliverables
- Basis of design and design manuals
- FEED-level P&IDs, PFDs, plot plans and GA drawings
- Equipment datasheets and long-lead specifications
- Class-3 (±10%) cost estimate and Level-3 schedule
- Integrated HAZOP, LOPA and SIL determination
- Sanction-ready package for board approval
Our process
How an engagement runs.
- 1
Kick-off
Objectives, deliverables list, study protocols and schedule agreed.
- 2
Option development
Concept refinement, design basis, trade-off studies closed out.
- 3
Design development
P&IDs, GAs, equipment and instrument specifications issued for FEED.
- 4
Safety and estimating
HAZOP / LOPA / SIL run into the live design; bottom-up Class-3 estimate built.
- 5
Sanction package
FEED report, estimate, schedule and risk register issued for approval.
