Question: How many stages are there in foreign engineering design?

Question: How many stages are there in foreign engineering design, and what do they mean? What kind of FEED designs do foreign engineering companies have? Which stage does it refer to? It doesn’t seem to have such a complex classification in China. Those who are aware of this could please explain it to me, so I can learn from it.

If a mature process package is available, foreign design is divided into basic design and detailed design. The basic design involves taking the process package as a foundation and, based on the characteristics of the project and the given conditions, transforming it into an engineering framework that can serve as a basis for the detailed design. This includes PFD design, the initial PID design, equipment data sheets, instrument data sheets, an initial version of the pipeline diagram, as well as the solicitation of quotes and placement of orders for key equipment. It also involves the solicitation of quotes for most of the equipment, the study and modeling of pipeline routes to 30%, the study of electrical and instrumentation route layouts, and the solicitation of quotes and placement of orders for equipment from electrical and instrumentation manufacturers. The level of detail is greater than that of preliminary designs carried out in China ； The detailed design involves adapting the preliminary design in accordance with domestic design standards, transforming the design documents into drawings that can guide construction, and supporting the procurement of all necessary materials. Regarding FEED design, as I haven’t had much exposure to it, I believe that FEED is a design document developed on the basis of the process package, serving as input for the basic design. Some projects have a FEED phase, like the LNG project we are working on now, while others proceed directly from the process package to the conceptual design stage.
Engineering Design is divided into the following stages: 1.1. Concept Design 1.2. FEED (Front End of Engineering Design) 1.3. Basic & Detail Design 1.4. Shop Drawing Design 1.5. As-Built Drawing Design 1.6. On-site Survey 1.7. Drawings and Document Drafting
I’m checking these things right now. Thanks for sharing. Thank you!
With a mature process package in place, our current project is in the FEED stage. Conduct a preliminary design based on the materials provided by Party A

Concept Design; 1 as-Built Drawing Design. As-Built Drawing Design is carried out after the project has been completed and put into operation, and it usually takes less time. FEED (Front End of Engineering Design) refers to the front-end engineering design, which is similar to the preliminary design.
Please take a look at what is clearly explained in “Chemical Process Design”
