It's essential to ask tough questions at the start of a new project. What products do we need, and what feedstock will we need to make them? What processes do we need to make that happen? How will we transport feed and products? And will we make money trying to do it?

 

Process Design With just an assay of the available feedstock, Ventech can conduct a feasibility study that answers these questions and more. We transform preliminary concepts into plot plans, process flow diagrams, and piping and instrumentation drawings.

 

Financing We estimate the capital costs and find cost-saving solutions to deliver the information you need to approach investors and partners—and can even help you find additional financing sources from multilateral lending institutions.

 

Economic Analysis Of course, capital costs are only part of the impact on your project's long-term profitability. Ventech can also perform an economic analysis that accurately estimates operational costs, feedstock costs, and expected revenue that is based on local market conditions.

 

Permitting

Many international projects require complex permitting that can delay your ability to go to market quickly. Ventech's project managers can help expedite that process through our in-depth knowledge of international environmental regulations and can easily provide emissions data for environmental impact assessments that conform with local regulations.

 

Our engineering group boasts decades of experience in the complete, front-to-end design and installation of refineries and processing units. With onsite expertise in mechanical, civil, structural, and pipe engineering—as well as a rigorous quality assurance program—Ventech will ensure your modular refinery or process unit will arrive on location ready to perform.

 

Process EngineeringOur process engineering team has extensive experience in simulating, designing and operating petroleum refinery units in various environments and jurisdictions.

 

Instrument Engineering Since our inception, Ventech has specialized in instrument design--from sizing orifice plates and relief valves to programming PLCs and DCS systems.

 

Electrical Engineering Because most projects require onsite power generation, our electrical department has deep experience in designing power distribution systems, conduit routings, lighting plans, MCCs and switchgear.

Civil/Structural Engineering Our Civil/Structural department supports the infrastructure of our modular refineries and process units, including design and fabrication of steel structures, foundations, lifting plans, earthwork, sewer designs, water treatment and fire safety.

 

The best-designed refinery won't reach its full potential unless the development cycle is well-managed. Ventech's Project Controls Team are experts in creating budgets and schedules, monitoring progress and keeping projects on track, and managing costs along the way. We offer:

• Cost Analysis
• Onsite estimating, scheduling, progress reporting, and cost analysis
• Contractor auditing to ensure projects stay on schedule and on budget
• Support in the field and through our home office
• Unparalleled experience in oil and gas projects of every size and on every continent
