Electrical engineering design for chemicals and petrochemicals

In the chemical industry, documentation is part of the operating permit. Measuring points, hazardous zones and safety devices must not only be planned correctly but be provable at any time. That fundamentally changes what is required of the structure and upkeep of the documents.

Typical tasks

Instrumentation planning with complete instrument and equipment lists.
Accounting for hazardous zones in device selection and installation.
Traceable linking of P&ID and electrical documentation.
Revisions that represent the plant state correctly at any time.
Reworking legacy documentation from earlier expansion stages.

What we take on

Electrical planning and instrumentation documentation.
Structuring and maintaining existing plant documentation.
Reviewing documentation supplied by vendors and trades.
Technical project responsibility over the project duration.

Engineering software & CAE systems

We work inside your system landscape.

For electrical design and technical documentation we use established CAE systems. Which one we use follows your standards and your existing environment – not our habit.

Technical framework

We explicitly take on the unglamorous parts too: maintaining instrument lists, holding the labelling system, feeding changes cleanly back into the as-built. That is exactly where documentation otherwise fails.
