Project Engineering Management - Course Content
Engineering overview
- Project development phases:
- The engineering in a project: role, organization, documents, the parties
involved, quality, engineering design data, codes & standards, sub-contracting.
- The technical referential and design basis
2. The engineering disciplines
- The activities and deliverables of the different disciplines
✓ Process: Design basis and criteria / Process Flow Scheme, PFD, HMB /
Process description / Equipment sizing / P&IDs /Piping class selection
and line sizing / Operating and control philosophy / Instrument process
specification / Process and Emergency shutdown / Utility consumption
list / Flare study / Operating manual
✓ Equipment: list of equipment / material requisition / rotating equipment /
mechanical data sheet
✓ Plant layout and piping
✓ Safety and environment: HAZARD Identificatication / risk assessment /
process Safety System / Fire protection & Fire fighting/ Fire & Gas

4. Keys to a successful engineering execution
- The overall engineering work sequence: interfaces between disciplines and
with vendors,
- Understanding the schedule requirements: critical path of an EPC Project,
consequences for engineering
- The key engineering milestones + benchmarks
- The internal constraints of the Engineering schedule: interfaces between
disciplines, Vendor input.
- Interface and change management: challenges and best practice
- Key aspects of Engineering:
✓ Engineering Management
