Method 3: The CAPCOST Method 3: The CAPCOST ApproachApproach
Equipment Parameters (Pressure, MOC, Size, Hp …)
“Base Cost” = Purchase Cost of Equipment - in Carbon Steel and 0 barg
BARE MODULE COST (Directs and Indirects) - installed equipment in actual materials and actual pressure
Bare Module Factor = f (Factorpressure, Factormaterial)
MODULE COST OF PLANT - for expansion to an existing Plant -contingency 15%, fees 3%
Module Factor = 1.18
GRASS ROOTS COST OF PLANT - infrastruction (utilities, off-sites aux. Buildings, product storage, loading and unloading facilities ...)
