Early-Stage Project Development


Lead Case Selection

Rosnik believe in  “get it right the first time”. A combination of fit-for-purpose tools and the right skill sets to collaboratively attain capital efficiency and meet business objectives of our clients. Brownfield changes requires proper front-end evaluation based on an optimized base case portraying the existing capability of process units. Avoiding this step can result in costly changes, regret capital, and an asset that does not meet business objectives.

Rosnik will evaluate process alternatives based on the optimized base case, to select the lead cases. In this stage we look deeply into the available technologies that suit the project needs and try to utilize unused existing unit/equipment capacities and simple debottlenecks to reduce the project cost. Our team will also look at possibilities for tie ups with outside utility providers.

The evaluation of systems is inclusive of all aspects of the facility from processing, energy, and oil movements / logistics.  We have the skills to improve the granularity of the analytics. We have no allegiance to technology providers or EPC firms, thereby allowing for evaluation and selection of what are truly the best options for a client. Our holistic approach can result in a lead case with very competitive cost and a simple schedule to execute. 

Gate 2 Basis(Project Go No Go Gate)

Once the lead case is selected, we will develop preliminary heat and material balance and equipment information for a Gate 2 cost and schedule estimate.  We can get some of this work done at our high efficiency center in India to substantially reduce the cost. We will also help our clients  to start preliminary work on environmental permit. Customers can expect preliminary bench marking of the project cost and schedule as well.

Our Strategic Development division can develop probability weighted cost estimates or conventional cost & schedule estimates.

Depending on the customer needs,  a preliminary HAZOP and constructability review can also be developed as well. We will optimize the design further before or after Gate 2 engaging experienced Process, Civil, Electrical & Machinery engineers at a high level to substantially reduce the project cost and speed up the schedule.

Rosnik can put together Gate 2 packages if required.
