ABOUT OUR SERVICES
At Plant Engineering, our passion is to find the solution that will provide you with the most value when acquiring assets and then to support you in finding the asset management solutions that will help you maximise your returns. We understand the complexities of project development and construction, as well as operating/maintaining assets, and therefore have a keen appreciation of how and where value is added throughout the life cycle.
When installing or adding processing capacity, the core processes and buildings require utilities such as steam generation and distribution, power generation, cooling water, fire systems, plant & instrumentation air, water systems and storage tanks. These utilities have a large impact on project value and lifecycle cost. As part of our drive to provide a complete solution, we offer plant utilities engineering to a level where it is truly ready for a D&C type tender. Plant Engineering Solutions have the in-house expertise to provide you with an energy efficient, practical and compliant plant utilities solution to complement your core processing plant.
Front End Loading Engineering and Advisory
Front End Loading through the recognized FEL gated process from FEL 1 to FEL3.
Engineering, Capital Estimate, Operations Costing and Financial Modelling.
We have the in house experience to complete the FEL level engineering for plant utilities and balance of plant.
Although Plant Engineering has processing plant experience in a number of sectors, our business model is to outsource core process plant engineering as it is not generally our field of expertise.
Owners Engineer
