1. Background
The Multinational Oil Company Ltd (MOC) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Shell
Oil. Shell Oil is one of the global players in the oil exploration and oil refining
industry. While Shell Oil focuses on the exploration of crude oil and the refining
of it into major products such as diesel, petrol and kerosene, MOCs main
emphasis is on the production of lubricant oils. Since 1989, MOC owns and
operates several oil processing facilities worldwide. Currently, MOC supplies
the South East Asian market from its facilities in the Americas, Europe and
Australia.
However, market factors, such as supply chain and customer demand, together
with changes in the economy, put pressure on the profitability of the lubricant oil
industry. Therefore, competitive pricing in the marketplace will continue to
increase as major players in the lubricant oil industry fight harder for a bigger
share of the 23 million tons worldwide demand.
To supply the growing South East Asian market with lubricant oils at a
competitive price MOC has decided in cooperation with Shell Oil to establish a
new lubricating oil blending plant in South East Asia. Based on locational
advantages, MOC will benefit from three factors. First, MOC will take
advantage of the lower labour costs, which are substantially lower and will
remain lower than in other existing plant locations around the world. Second,
due to the short physical distance of the biggest markets within the South East
Asian region, such as China, Taiwan and Japan, the transport costs for access
to the these markets are significantly reduced. Finally, the supply of the local
Vietnamese market benefits from the different tariff imposed on the import of the
raw materials for lubricant oils, such as base oil and the finished product. While
Vietnam has imposed a tariff of 20% on lubricant oil, the tariff for base oil, an
important component for lubricant oil, is only 5%.
Only recently, MOCs biggest competitors, including AP Oil International Ltd.
and BP-Amoco, have started to install their own lubricant oil blending plants in
Vietnam. Therefore, MOCs planned facility in Vietnam will play a vital role to
maintain its actual share in the lubricant oil market of 8% (2001). Although the
relative market share will not increase, due to the growing market the absolute
market share in volume will increase significantly in the near future.
Due to the strategic importance of the new facility in Vietnam, the total capital
investment involved in the project will be funded from internal resources. In
particular, MOC and Shell Oil provide the required funding.

2. Purpose
As mentioned in the Background of this document the project is undertaken to
address the business need of MOC and Shell Oil in the South East Asian
market. The strong competition in the lubricant oil market requires MOC in
cooperation with Shell Oil to establish a state-of-the-art lubricant oil blending
plant in the South East Asian region.
The scope of this project includes the designing and establishment of a state-of-
the-art lubricant oil blending plant in Vietnam.

3. Objectives
Within the overall purpose of this project to design and establish a new state-of-
the-art lubricating oil blending plant in Vietnam, several particular objectives
have to be accomplished. The successful achievement of each individual goal
is crucial to guarantee a competitive position in the South East Asian market
and to gain a global reputation.

Although all goals are important to secure a
highly competitive position, the primary goals are
necessary to fulfil the minimum requirements of
the LOBP Project. The additional
accomplishment of the secondary goals would
further improve the competitive position.
The distinction between primary and secondary
goals is based on the preference matrix (see
Annex 1). Figure 3.1 shows the results of the
preference matrix including the objectives and
the marks for each of those. The goals A, E, D,
and B are classified as primary objectives and
the remaining ones are secondary goals.

Status: Authorised
Page: 8 of 40

3.1 Primary Objectives
The primary objectives are:
A) The lubricant oil blending plants installed capacity will be 40,000 metric tons
per annum to produce international quality lubricants that meet all of the
domestic market needs. Although the initial capacity will be 40,000 metric
tons per annum, the plant has to be prepared for an expansion up to 80,000
metric tons per annum at a future stage.
E) To be able to gain a competitive position, the cost of the project must not
exceed six million dollars and the annual fixed costs of the installed facility
should be around $200,000.
D) This project should be completed within 12 months including the stages from
the initial design to the commissioning.
B) The plant will include a bulk storage of 4,000 metric tons that is in line with
the blending facility.
3.2 Secondary Objectives
The secondary objectives are:
J) Provide a 12 months warranty from start of operation.
C) A laboratory completely equipped with the most modern scientific
instruments and capable of analysing lubes to extremely fine detail,
controlling the quality of lubes to determine its qualitative aspects has to be
built on the same premises.
H) Train the employees.
G) The plant should be committed to produce and supply lubricants in a safe
and healthy environment for employees.
I) The concept of the plant should be dedicated to the protection of the
environment by development of less toxic products and a range of
biodegradable oils, participating in the collection and the treatment of used
oils, and treating of polluted grounds.
F) In order to integrate the facility into the new companys global information
network, the plant should include a state-of-the-art information system with a
global interface.
K) International and local contractors will supply the blending plant in modular
sections while only local contractors will build infrastructure facilities

4. Scope Statement
The vital role of the LOBP Project is to coordinate various activities to design
and establish a new state-of-the-art lubricant oil blending plant in Vietnam. In
particular, activities range from the detailed engineering and design, to the
procurement and handling of supply and contractors, to construction monitoring
and inspection and to the final commissioning. Additionally, the LOBP Project
includes the initial training of the employees during the commissioning phase.
In order to be successful, several project deliverables have to be accomplished.
These project deliverables have been listed in the sections above titled Primary
Objectives and Secondary Objectives.
Figure 4.1 shows the project scope and structure in a graphical format.

5. Exclusions
The LOBP Project is clearly confined to the design and establishment of the
lubricant oil blending plant. Several associated facilities and matters are
explicitly excluded from this project.
These exclusions are:
The external transport infrastructure for raw materials and finished products
to and from the plant is excluded.
No bottling and canning of products is to be undertaken within this plant.
This project is not involved in the operating of the facility.
MOCs Logistics Department supplies the required raw material for testing
and commissioning.
The integration of the plant within the companys hierarchy and customer
network is excluded.

6. Constraints
In accomplishing the objectives of the LOBP Project various constraints would
have to be considered beforehand. Although the constraints do negatively
impact on the projects cost, time and planning effort, the consideration of the
constraints will guarantee the success of the project.
In particular, those constraints are:
The local supply of electricity, water and telecommunication is not 100%
reliable. Therefore, additional contingency equipment, such as an electricity
generator, water tank and filter, have to be installed.
It has to be a state-of-the-art facility, which means that it cannot be copied
from any existing plant. Furthermore, all required components have to be
new.
Due to the already approved site in the industrial zone in Hanoi, the size and
the shape are given and cannot be changed.
The total cost of the new plant must not exceed 6 million US dollars.
The project has to be completed within 12 months.
Use of local contractors, which means limited choice of proven quality of
contractors.
Import of required high-tech equipment results in higher costs and longer
lead times due to transport.
Local labour market does not provide adequate skilled worker. Therefore,
an extended training period is required.
Requirement of high occupational health and safety standards.
Measures to avoid polluting the environment including oil leakage from tanks
and pipelines and toxic chemicals.
Complex regulation by the local government to get the final approval for
operation.
This project does not cover the training of other employees than those
involved in operating the technical functions of the plant.

7. Related Projects
At the same time as the LOBP Project progresses other related projects are
carried out. These projects together with the LOBP Project build a broader
system and therefore have to be considered throughout all stages of this
project. Due to the strong interrelationships between these projects, there will
be special communication measures, as detailed below, between the various
projects.
Related projects are:
Bottling and canning plant in Hanoi, Vietnam:
The bottling and canning plant will be located on a nearby site in Hanoi. It
will use the finished products of the lubricant oil blending plant as its inputs.
Therefore, the lubricant oil blending plant treats the bottling and canning
plant as another major customer. This, in turn, results in cooperation
between both in regard to the product quality and quantity.
Logistics improvement including the external transport of the lubricating oil
blending plant:
In order to reduce the transport costs within the whole supply and
distribution process a further project addresses this issue. A major concern
for the logistic improvement team is the supply of raw materials to the
lubricant oil blending plant in Hanoi and the distribution within the South East
Asian market. Therefore, minor coordination between both projects are
necessary.
Global information system:
To further strengthen the communication and coordination between the
worldwide locations a new global information system will be implemented.
The LOBP Project has to put into operation an information system that
features the requirements of the global information system. Consultants
from the global information system project will give advice on this topic
within the appropriate stages.

8. Assumptions
The following assumptions are made in conjunction with the LOBP Project:
The feasibility study and the financial analysis was undertaken by the
relevant department within the general management of MOC in cooperation
with Shell Oil. Therefore, no further analysis is necessary.
MOC and Shell Oil provide the complete funding of 6 million US dollars.
The approved site in the industrial zone in Hanoi, Vietnam is accessible by
road and by water.
The national and local governments have initially approved the planning and
building of the lubricant oil blending plant in the specified area. However, to
get the final authorisation prior to commencement of operations further
approval documents are necessary.

9. Broad Strategy
The Multicultural Oil Company Ltd, the owner of the LOBP Project, has already
established a dedicated project team (hereinafter called the LOBP Project
team). The LOBP Project team has full authority in executing this particular
project. Moreover, all decisions related to this project are the LOBP Project
teams responsibility. Hence, this team shall provide regular progress reports to
the board of directors.
Should there be any problems that cannot be resolved by this team or that is
beyond its authority, the team should consult the board of directors.
During this project, the following project phases will be implemented:
Engineering
Procurement
Construction
Commissioning & Start-Up
Warranty
Details will be explained in the Phases part of this document.

Version: 1.0
Status: Authorised
Page: 14 of 40

To comply with quality requirements, appropriate standards and procedures
will be applied along with closed supervision from the LOBP Project team.
The following local standards will be applied:
Law on the Protection of the Environment 27/12/93
Vietnam State Regulations on Environment Standards 1995
Vietnamese Fire fighting & prevention standards; TCVN-2622, TCVN-
5738
Procurement regulations and Decree 43/CP-16/7/96
Regulation on construction and investment administration and Decree
42/CP-16/7/96
Ministry of Construction Circular 01/BXD-CXCD-15/4/97
Circular on technology transfer 28 TT 22/1/94
JIS, and other applicable standards

In order to minimize the project cost, approved local resources (material &
manpower) will be utilised. It is also encouraged to produce bulk material-take-
off as accurate as possible to minimise unnecessary costs. The design of the
plant will be compact to reduce bulk materials consumption, with consideration
of some technical and non-technical aspects (e.g. maintainability, operation
ability, accessibility, reliability, safety, security as well as aesthetics). In
addition, a smart strategy in procurement (e.g. vendors binding, negotiation) will
be applied to reduce the prices for equipment and materials.
To comply with the planned overall project duration, the Concurrent
Engineering method (the flying start) will be implemented. By implementing the
Concurrent Engineering strategy, it is not necessary to create a linear schedule
and to use over-the-wall approach. An overlapping activity schedule will be
used with consideration of any possible risks. The critical path on the schedule
shall be closely monitored.
Since time is not a critical dimension among the three dimensions (cost, quality
and time) for the LOBP Project, any shortcoming in the other dimensions will
have to be offset by sacrificing time. However, performance on all three
dimensions is vital in order to achieve the best results on this project.
A sound risk assessment will be applied during the preliminary stage of the
project execution to identify any potential problems as well as to develop a
contingency plan (e.g. HAZOP ~ Hazardous Operating Procedure).
Within all stages of this project the accommodation of future needs (e.g. plant
expansion) is considered. Furthermore, the Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) (i.e.
implementing social, economic, environmental assessment & strategy) will also
be addressed.

10. Phases
As mentioned in the broad strategy, the LOBP Project is divided into five major
phases.
10.1 Engineering & Design
The engineering and design will be done on an in-house basis by the
LOBP Project team with support from internal experts.
Within the engineering and design phase two sub-phases exist that will
be carried out subsequently. The first sub-phase is the basic engineering
and the second the detailed engineering.
During and at the end of this phase applicable reviews, checks and
approval procedures will be undertaken to guarantee high quality and
compliance with all objectives.
In order to achieve maximum results, all available resources, such as
manpower, knowledge database, engineering software, will be fully
utilised.
10.2 Procurement
All procurement activities will be handled and monitored by the LOBP
Project team.
The appropriate procedure, including requisition, quotation, bidding,
purchase order, will be followed to ensure that all items purchased
comply with the project quality specification.
For each procurement process a detailed strategy will be developed to
reduce delivery time. This is especially important for long-lead items.
10.3 Construction
To share risk and improve efficiency, it was decided that sub-contractors
would carry out all construction activities.
The LOBP Project team will coordinate and supervise all construction
activities on a day-to-day basis.

Page: 16 of 40

10.4 Commissioning & Start-Up
The LOBP Project team will execute the commissioning and the start-up
with supervision from an approved independent institution to get
Governments final approval.
Throughout this phase of the project the LOBP Project team will provide
on-site training to future operators.
The final documentation (as-built documents) will be finalised during this
phase.
10.5 Warranty
During the warranty period (12 months, after project completion), a
member of the LOBP Project team will be assigned to handle all claims
from the plant operations management.
All applicable procedures shall be done in response to those claims.

11. Key Activity Schedule
The key activity schedule follows the five phases that were explained in the
previous part. Each phase is structured into sub-phases and activities to clearly
identify all required steps. Annex 2 presents the work breakdown structure,
which contains a detailed picture of the key activities.
