WE OFFER A VARIETY OF ENGINEERING AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT SERVICES TO SUIT EVERY NEED
The conceptual design is a study phase in which ideas and possibilities are evaluated. This phase results in a basic process concept, a preliminary schedule and a rough cost estimate for project feasibility evaluation. We evaluate the process to assess its technical feasibility and economic viability for developing project scope as well as providing a well defined starting point for a more detailed process design.
Our conceptual design deliverables package covers:
- Literature Survey
- Preparation of Process Simulation (Hysys)
- Development of Process Scheme Options
- Concept Development
- Conceptualization of Process Schemes
- Concept Refinement
- Preliminary Process Flow Diagram (PFD)
- Overall Heat and Material Balance (HMB)
- Conceptual Layout
- Order of Magnitude Cost
The basic engineering services offered by Front End Engineering Consultancy consist of core documentation of projects, including process flow diagrams, heat & mass balances, piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), control & operational philosophy, basic equipment sizing, equipment specifications, conceptual equipment layout, etc.
Our basic engineering deliverables package covers:
- Conceptual process studies (material and heat balances, process flow-sheets,…)
- Preliminary plot plan

Conceptual Designs
Conceptual design is at the heart of field development planning for both onshore and offshore developments. Front End Engineering Consultancy has extensive experience in the design of onshore/offshore facilities for both oil & gas treatment facilities and, therefore, is able to produce designs that are fully integrated with any downstream facilities.
FEED Studies
FEED (Front End Engineering Design) means Basic Engineering which is conducted after completion of Conceptual Design or Feasibility Study. A robust FEED, accompanied by reliable cost and schedule data, is critical to the ongoing success of a project. Our team at Front End Engineering Consultancy has vast experience in leading and providing accurate process and project engineering deliverables included in the FEED Package.
Process Modelling and Optimisation
Our team delivers robust process simulation models that are extensively used by our Clients as predictive indicators to enhance critical decision making and greatly contribute to de-bottlenecking. We have many years of experience in the preparation of Hysys simulation models for a wide range of upstream processes, such as oil processing, sour gas treatment & gas dehydration.
Process Safety Reviews
Whether you are carrying out a safety review, implementing safety audits or ensuring compliance with standards or regulations, we have the up-to-date resources and skills to complete the task. Our experienced consultants are able to conduct process safety reviews on various aspects of risk and safety. We can facilitate / lead / participate in workshops such as HAZID, ENVID, HAZOP and SIL/LOPA.
BFD, PFD, P&ID & EFD Preparation
Our process engineers are experienced in the preparation of Process Flow Diagrams (PFD), Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID) and Engineering Flow Diagrams (EFD) for all upstream Oil & Gas processing facilities. All drawings are prepared with latest smart AutoCAD P&ID software.
Troubleshooting Support
Our experienced consultants have the ability to provide best-in-class support for troubleshooting specific process / equipment by means of data gathering, validation and utilization techniques.
