Feasibility and Conceptual Studies
The study translates client needs into project opportunities. Services include:
⇒ Selecting and comparing appropriate technologies
⇒ Defining project scope, schedule and costs
Process Basic Design
The process services cover all the areas of gas treatment, refining, petrochemicals, fine chemicals and power generation. They include, but are not limited to the following:
⇒ Site audits of existing facilities
⇒ Revamping and increasing profitability
⇒ Static and dynamic simulations of operations
⇒ Operational optimization
⇒ Thermal rating
⇒ Site studies for environmental and safety aspects
⇒ Cost estimation
Assistance is obtained from specialists from other engineering disciplines such as pressure vessels, instrument, piping and civil work.
Basic, Front End and Detail Engineering
Prior to the erection of the plant, engineering studies are needed involving several engineering disciplines such as process, pressure vessels, rotating equipment, instrumentation, electrical, civil, piping, cost control and scheduling. All these activities are covered and fully managed within ITOK GmbH. According to the nature of the project, specific project engineering will include all or part of the following steps:
1. Basic Engineering Design (BED) covering:
⇒ Material balances, process flow sheets and preliminary plot plans
⇒ Preliminary Piping and Instrument Diagrams
⇒ Definition and sizing of main equipment resulting in process specifications
⇒ Specification of effluents
⇒ Definition of control and safety devices
2. Front End Engineering Design (FEED)
Mechanical data sheets of the main equipment, starting from the process specifications issued during the BED are incorporated into the specific requirements of codes and standards that are applied in the projects.
⇒ Thermal rating of heat exchangers
⇒ Preparation of tender packages for the main equipment
⇒ Development of process and utility Piping and Instrument Diagrams released for detail engineering
⇒ Electrical and civil works layouts
⇒ Ordering the main long lead equipment
3. Detail Engineering Design (DED)
If Front End Engineering Design has been developed by an external company, before starting the detail design, a declaration of acceptance of the FEED is needed. Normally the following activities will be done:
⇒ Thermal rating of heat exchangers
⇒ Development of Piping and Instrument Diagrams released for construction
⇒ Development of detailed piping drawings, including isometrics and stress calculations
⇒ Development of detailed drawings related to instrumentation, electrical facilities and civil works.
⇒ Development of Equipment list
⇒ Safety logistics diagrams
⇒ Management of vendor drawings, costs and schedule control
Construction
For big size plants, where ITOK GmbH is involved as a Sub-contractor, it will provide supervision activities only for any of the technical specialties. These activities are supported by all the engineering documents prepared during the detail engineering design phase and issued as "For construction" documents. For smaller/medium sized plants, where ITOK GmbH is acting as the main contractor, temporary facilities located close to the site area will be provided. They will include:
⇒ Main offices to accommodate site management
⇒ Staff and Supervision
⇒ Instrument laboratory
⇒ Electrical and instrument storage
⇒ Temporary warehouse to store materials and items which cannot be stored in open areas
⇒ Power, water and sewerage distribution
⇒ Communication systems
The Site Manager will report to the Project Manager, assisted by the site staff, and will perform the following activities:
⇒ Update the construction schedule
⇒ Coordinate the activities of all subcontractors
⇒ Plan and schedule the construction work
⇒ Report progress of the construction work
⇒ Erect and install the equipment and material
⇒ Provide detailed monthly reports
Pre-Commissioning and Commissioning
ITOK GmbH will mobilize all qualified personnel as part of its Home Office Project Team to support the pre-commissioning and commissioning activities done by the main contractor.
Operation & Maintenance
⇒ Plant Audit (Survey, data analysis, Project prioritization)
⇒ Maintenance Engineering
⇒ Maintenance Planning
⇒ Maintenance services
⇒ Plan modifications
Project Financing
Through its financial team located in Vienna, ITOK GmbH can arrange contract financing on behalf of its clients. Acting as a financial advisor, ITOK GmbH responds to the demands of its clients in the field of financial engineering by negotiating financing under the most appropriate structure for each project. A broad range of financing instruments can be evaluated, such as:
⇒ Project and Structured Financing
⇒ Credit Risk Coverage
⇒ ECA Facilities
⇒ Multi-Sourcing Export Credit
