Chemical & Petrochemicals

We support all stages of the asset or project lifecycle

For our clients in the Chemical and Petrochemicals sector we recognise the complexity of problems faced – not only that hyper-scale projects specific to the sector bring their own challenges, but also that the sector is fundamentally changing. The pivot to sustainable products and services is arguably having a greater impact than in any other industry, redefining everything from process requirements to location strategy as embodied and operational carbon become significantly more influential in decision making. Consequently, there is a growing need for innovation, the assessment and introduction of new technologies and assurance that asset and system capability is maximised to deliver against financial and sustainability targets. Indicatura supports all stages of the investment cycle to provide the best value options.

Concept

The long lifespans of many projects in the Chemical & Petrochemicals sector exacerbate the challenges posed by uncertainty in future projections. New technologies are being developed to meet the shift to renewables  – are legacy designs still appropriate for future needs? By considering future uncertainty and all factors that define success over the lifecycle, we help you validate your plans or provide options better suited to future needs and the unique drivers of value for your organisation.

Execution

By considering all contributing factors that define the success of an investment and agreeing a framework to define their relative importance, we not only expand the range of options available, but help project directors make valid comparisons between each. Every element of the project is assessed not only for initial CapEx, but all lifecycle costs; adaptability to changing demand; performance and reliability; risk and consequence of disruption or failure; and carbon impact. By doing so, our clients typically consider a wider range of options, presented in a digestible format, giving confidence that they are deliverable and aligned to core business objectives.

 

Operation

Indicatura supports the operational phase of the asset lifecycle by focussing on ongoing value at a strategic, tactical, and operational level.  We provide tools and expertise to maintain continuity between deployment and operations, ensuring that operations and maintenance is aligned to the design principles and design delivered. Through our team we offer challenge to existing ways of working to drive improvements in holistic system performance and provide assurance – where required, to industry standards.

1 Concept
Initiate
You have concerns that investing in one area won’t achieve the desired outcome against a multi-faceted problem.
Requirements
You have a complicated set of requirements but a standard approach to design. What if the outcome is more complex than needed and therefore wasteful?
Optioneering
The old way is the best way … or should you be redefining ‘best practice’?
Definition
You have some options, but can you be confident that the one you select is the right one?
2 Execution
Design
Have you considered all eventualities in your design? What about future unknowns?
Delivery
The supply chain response to your ITT/ITB has a wealth of quantitative and qualitative information, but can you evaluate the impact of future uncertainty?
Transition
Now that investment has driven changes into the facility is your maintenance plan still optimal?
3 Operation
Operation
Do you have conviction that your investment will deliver on projections?
