Details and technologies for chemical plant construction! !
Thread Content
I work in a chemical company, and I’m about to take charge of a small project, having to be fully responsible for it throughout the process. Now there are only process parameters. From the first step in preparing this project to the final testing and commissioning, what tasks need to be carried out and what kind of technology is required. (For example, if step N involves pipeline layout, it is necessary to determine this based on the positions of the equipment’s pipe connections as well as the layout of the equipment itself; the knowledge required is, of course, the rules for pipeline layout.) It must be done in great detail, otherwise any oversight might lead to serious problems. I earnestly ask experts for their guidance! There must be things I haven’t thought of; please help me complete them!
...Was the original poster responsible for the installation as an engineering firm, or for supervision as the owner, or as a supervisor, or as a design firm? . . It’s so chaotic, I mean
The project belongs to our company; we acquire other people’s manufacturing processes, while everything else is done by us. I am the overall person in charge. What I mean is that although it’s impossible for me to do everything by myself, I need to be able to guide and supervise their work, which requires me to have the necessary skills; it’s easy to understand that if I don’t know anything, how can I oversee them? Of course, many tasks these days, such as equipment positioning and installation, piping work, and the determination of electrical and instrumentation aspects, all require me to work together with my colleagues to decide on them. In such a situation, theoretically, if I were to do it myself, what steps would I need to take and what skills would I have to master!
It’s better if you first share what’s on your mind, and then everyone can help complete it, right?
I’m a newcomer, so I haven’t thought of much; there’s no framework at all, and it’s difficult to develop muscles. . .
There’s no need to ask too many questions about the process package; you just need to specify the quality standards and the deadline. Then the design institute responsible for the common areas should provide you with pipe layout plans, and even single-line diagrams of the pipes; it is your responsibility to review these plans in order to prevent conflicts between the pipes, while leaving the rest to the installation company. Also, as the overall supervisor, you should have at least three specialized teams under you: process, equipment, and electrical instrumentation; they should be able to assist you with some of the responsibilities. You just need to keep an overall view of things
Thank you so much to the person above; it seems I can’t earn any points. We only purchase the manufacturing processes; we handle the design work ourselves. There are no issues with electrical and instrumentation systems, and we also decide on the equipment ourselves. The biggest worry is problems arising at the connection points; everyone should not work on their own tasks, otherwise in the end there will be conflicts between the manufacturing processes and the electrical and instrumentation equipment.
Reply to 7# LE Weiyang: What project are you guys working on? What a large project! Are you qualified? I do the design and construction myself! This isn’t building a wall around one’s own yard! It is recommended to find a qualified company to handle this task
Let’s put the issue of qualifications aside for now; the project requires an investment of around 80 million, which is a small amount. The main building itself is only 25*15 meters in size. I need more details. In fact, many small businesses do things themselves in order to save money. All the civil engineering work and such is carried out by our company’s own infrastructure department.
After reading the original poster’s description, it seems that they are not very skilled in technical design. Although the project is not large-scale, it is still recommended to hire a professional design firm to handle these tasks; trying to do it on one’s own is likely to result in unnecessary expenses. If one decides to carry out the work themselves, the general process involves design, material procurement, civil construction, installation of equipment and pipelines, electrical and instrumentation work, cleaning and purging of pipeline equipment, and testing. Once everything is satisfactory, the process moves on to loading the materials into use
