Engineering interpretation
FEED defines technical and economic bases ahead of a final investment decision; the project capture figure is a design target, not current operating output, and this award is not a full EPC award.
Delivery responsibilities
A design study converts an owner’s objectives into an engineering basis that can be priced, reviewed and taken into subsequent execution. Process balances, utilities, constructability and tender packages must be consistent before contracts advance. The design team should identify unresolved interfaces and decisions that remain with the owner. Selecting a study provider is evidence of technical development, not confirmation of a final investment decision, a construction start or operating capacity. Dates quoted as future plans retain that status until a separate milestone is reported.
