What considerations should be taken when selecting a team for the installation of 100,000 tons of methanol? What are the requirements for the qualifications of the installation team?
Are there any special requirements? Grade 1 general contracting for chemical plant installation should be sufficient. However, past construction experience is also important when choosing a contractor
It is best to choose a company with experience in constructing with the same or similar equipment. And appropriate qualifications are required.
Qualifications and project managers are very important; in addition, it is essential to use the team specified for this project – subcontracting or assignment is strictly prohibited
Corporate qualifications and performance are essential. More specifically, there needs to be a dedicated project manager with proven results, as well as passion and energy; such a project manager should have the support of the company and capable team members who can deliver results. In short: with the support of the head office for installation work, a project manager who is energetic and competent, a team of skilled workers with a track record of successful projects, and the owner’s funding in place, with minimal interference from other parties (though it can’t be said that there’s no interference at all), the project will definitely be completed successfully. We also considered some construction companies that had many qualifications and a good track record, but their project managers had no prior experience in this type of project, and the construction crew was working on such projects for the first time. As a result, the owner imposed various criticisms, and the funding wasn’t provided as scheduled; the outcome is predictable. A complete mess, utterly horrible – it’s worth reflecting on.
First of all, it is necessary to choose a construction company that has the qualifications for installing methanol plants, as there are many different types of materials used for the pipes in the low-temperature methanol washing process, and high standards are required of the installation workers, especially welders; it is best to engage a large and capable company for this task. Our company has carried out several methanol projects, and I have been involved in 2 of them as well; so I should have quite a bit of experience.
