Cost data are stated as purchased, delivered, or installed cost. 


! " !  is the price of the
equipment FOB (free on board) at the manufacturerǯs plant. Purchased cost includes material,
design type, design pressure, capacity, etc.  " !  is the price of the equipment plus
delivery charges to the purchaserǯs plant FOB. Shipping, customs, packing, and another
transportation cost is included here. #  "!  means the equipment item has been purchased,
delivered, uncrated, and placed on a foundation in an operating department. This cost depends on
the equipment. In common, the cost includes things like freight, crane service, foundations and
supports, all labor, electrical, switch gear and controls, starters, etc.

For preliminary estimation of equipment cost, estimating charts have been used by many chemical
engineers to provide rough approximation. Even though it has many limitations compared to
Dzdetailed engineering designdz, it serves a useful purpose for most chemical engineers. The curve is
plotted as cost versus size data, mean that predicting the cost of another size is allowed as long as
the information of specific size is known.

To use the diagram, there are some indicators that must be considered:
1. Size factoring exponents
This is the main information obtained from the diagram.

ܿ‫ ʹ݁ݖ݅ݏݐݏ݋‬ൌ ܿ‫ ͳ݁ݖ݅ݏݐݏ݋‬൬ ൰
‫ͳ݁ݖ݅ݏ‬

The exponents are the slope of the cost versus size lines and given under each chart. DzSizedz
here is related to parameter chosen that affect cost primarily, such as cubic feet of gas per
minute for compressor while the others have chosen horse power. This is depends on
author.

2. Inflation cost indexes


It is defined as inflation indicator made specifically for the chemical industry to correct the
cost of each piece of equipment to the required date. The factor is known as Chemical
Engineering Plant Cost Index (CE Index).

‫ݔ݁݀݊ܫܧܥ‬ሺ݂‫ݐݎ݄ܽܿ݉݋ݎ‬ሻ

CE Index is composed of four components, weighted as follow: equipment, machinery, and


supports (61%), erection and installation factor (22%), buildings, material, and labor (7%),
and engineering and supervision (10%). This information is based on monthly survey and
produced as yearly figure (average value).

Besides CE, there are another indexes that can be used like Marshall and Swift Cost Index
(M&S), Nelson and Farrel Index (NF), Engineering News Record Index (ENR), etc. The choice
of index to use is based upon the industry in which the person works. For general
construction, ENR is preferred, but NF Index is more accepted in petroleum or
petrochemical business.

3. Installation factor


This factor includes estimation of total cost to purchase the equipment until it is installed
and ready to run. Installation factor has included freight, crane service, foundations and
supports, all labor, electrical, switch gear and controls, starters, etc. It would not only cover
the actual mounting of the equipment itself without any of its support of auxiliary
equipment.

This factor can be seen under the estimation diagram.

4.
odule factor
Almost similar with installation one, but module factor also includes all of the adjacent
minor equipment and connections. This factor can be seen under the estimation diagram.

For more application details about the estimation diagram, see example below.
. Purchased cost calculation

A petrochemical company has to do routine shut down for maintenance and quality
inspection in one of its plant. There are equipments that must be replaced with new ones;
one of them is tray column. It has 15 trays and diameter of 6 ft. It is constructed from 347
stainless and bubble cap type. Tray type is turbo grid.

In estimation diagram, the first information that can be obtained is the cost per tray. For
column diameter about 6 ft, the cost is approximately $1000 (bubble cap). From the
diagram it also can be seen that bubble cap type is more expensive than valve-trough one.
After that, the calculation of final purchased cost is considered factor of material, type, and
total of trays.

Because total of trays are 11, the cost above is multiply by 11.

This data is based on factors that were published in 1987, so that the cost should be
corrected by inflation cost index to fit the current date. The index of year 1987 is 320, but
the same index is not provided for year 2010. It can be assumed that the value is about 400.

R. Installed cost calculation


To calculate installed cost of the tray column, just follow the procedure that has been
explained before.
