01

Basic engineering

The foundation of any successful process plant begins with sound basic engineering. We develop the complete process basis for new plants or major modifications, covering:

  • Process design basis and operating philosophy
  • Heat and mass balance calculations
  • Process Flow Diagrams (PFD)
  • Equipment sizing and specification sheets
  • Utility load summary and tie-in requirements
  • Technology selection and process route evaluation

Ideal for:Concept studies, FEED packages, technology licensing support, investor-level documentation.

02

02

Detail engineering

Building on the basic engineering package, we deliver the full detail engineering scope required for project procurement and construction, including:

  • Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID)
  • Instrument and equipment datasheets
  • Line lists and pipeline sizing
  • Hydraulic calculations

Ideal for:EPC contractors, project developers, and plant owners requiring execution-ready engineering deliverables.

03

Troubleshoot study

Persistent operational problems in process plants are rarely simple — they require systematic investigation, not guesswork. Our troubleshoot studies follow a structured methodology to identify root causes and deliver practical corrective actions. Typical scope includes:

  • Review of operating data, DCS trends, and process parameters
  • Comparison against design intent and simulation benchmarks
  • Identification of root cause — hydraulic, thermal, mechanical, or process
  • Corrective action recommendations with implementation guidance

Common applications:Underperforming distillation columns, heat exchanger fouling and poor duty, scrubber inefficiencies, pump cavitation, product quality deviations.

Debottleneck study

When a plant needs to produce more, the answer is rarely to rebuild it. A well-executed debottleneck study identifies the specific constraints limiting throughput and defines targeted, cost-effective upgrades to achieve the desired capacity. Our debottleneck studies cover:

  • Current capacity assessment and constraint identification
  • Hydraulic and thermal load analysis at target throughput
  • Equipment rating review against increased loads
  • Options analysis with capital and operability trade-offs
  • Phased implementation recommendations

Ideal for:Capacity expansion projects, production optimization drives, pre-investment feasibility assessments.

Detailed scope methodology document — available on request.

System adequacy check

An independent, structured review of whether your existing plant systems are adequate for current or revised operating conditions. This study is particularly valuable before plant expansions, regulatory audits, or changes in feedstock or product specification. Scope typically covers:

  • Equipment rating verification against current operating loads
  • Safety system review — PRVs, flare, emergency shutdown logic
  • Utility system assessment — steam, cooling water, instrument air
  • Identification of gaps and recommended remediation actions

Ideal for:Plant owners, HSE reviews, pre-expansion due diligence, insurance or regulatory compliance assessments.

Scale-up from lab trials

Translating a laboratory or pilot-scale process into a commercial plant is one of the most technically demanding engineering challenges. We bring structured scale-up methodology to bridge the gap between bench results and full-scale operation. Our scale-up service covers:

  • Review and reconciliation of lab/pilot mass and energy balances
  • Identification of scale-dependent phenomena (mixing, heat transfer, residence time)
  • Commercial-scale equipment sizing and process design
  • Process safety review at commercial scale
  • Recommendations for pilot plant validation if required

Ideal for:Specialty chemical manufacturers, research organizations, and technology developers moving from development to commercial production.
