Capital Cost Estimate Types
Data: This type of estimate typically relies on cost information for a complete process taken from previously built plants.
This cost information is then adjusted using appropriate scaling factors, for capacity, and for inflation, to provide the
estimated capital cost.
Data: This type of estimate utilizes a list of the major equipment found in the process. This includes all pumps, compressors
and turbines, columns and vessels, fired heaters, and exchangers. Each piece of equipment is roughly sized and the
approximate cost determined. The total cost of equipment is then factored to give the estimated capital cost.
Diagrams: Based on PFD as described in Chapter 1.1. Costs from generalized charts.
Diagrams: Based on PFD as described in Chapter 1.1. Includes vessel sketches for major equipment, preliminary plot plan,
and elevation diagram.
Table 3.1. Summary of Capital Cost Estimating Classifications
Data: This type of estimate requires preliminary specifications for all the equipment, utilities,
instrumentation, electrical, and off-sites.
Diagrams: Final PFD, vessel sketches, plot plan, and elevation diagrams, utility balances, and a preliminary
P&ID.
Data: This type of estimate requires complete engineering of the process and all related off-sites and
utilities. Vendor quotes for all expensive items will have been obtained. At the end of a detailed estimate,
the plant is ready to go to the construction stage.
Diagrams: Final PFD and P&ID, vessel sketches, utility balances, plot plan and elevation diagrams, and
piping isometrics. All diagrams are required to complete the construction of the plant if it is built.

Module Costing Technique
• The bare module cost CBMis the sum of the direct and indirect costs
associated with equipment purchase and installation.
• The bare module cost CBM can be found from the expression:
P 1D 0.00315
2850 0.6P 1
Fp, vessel
0.0063
• For pressures below -0.5 barg, Fp,vessel = 1.25

Direct Project Expenses
CDE = CP° + CM + CL
CDE = CP° (1 + M)(1 + L)
• Equipment f.o.b. cost CP°
– purchased cost of equipment at manufacturer's site (free on board)
• Materials required for installation CM = M CP°
– includes all piping, insulation and fire proofing, foundations and
structural supports, instrumentation and electrical, and painting
associated with the equipment.
• labor to install equipment &mat'l CL = L (CP° + CM) = CP° L (1 + M)
– all labor associated with installing the equipment and materials
Indirect Project Expenses
CIDE = CFIT + CO + CE
CIDE = CP° (1 + M) (FIT + LO + E)
• Freight, insurance, taxes CFIT = FIT(C0 + CM)
– includes all costs for shipping equipment and materials to the plant site
• Construction overhead CO = O CL
– includes fringe benefits, sick leave, vacation; labor burden such as
social security and unemployment insurance, etc.; and salaries and
overhead for supervisory personnel
• Contractor engineering expense CE = E (CP° + CM)
– includes salaries and overhead for engineering, drafting, and project
management personnel
