Basic Estimation of Towers, Vessels, and Heat Exchangers for Plant Engineers
Towers, vessels, heat exchangers, and reactors are referred to as "fabrication equipment," which accounts for about 20% of the construction costs of petrochemical plants that primarily handle fluids, making it an important item for estimation and procurement personnel. This document provides a detailed explanation of the estimation of towers, vessels, and heat exchangers. The main explanatory content includes the following items: - Detailed explanation of the cost composition items and their contents for towers, vessels, and heat exchangers. - Explanation of the manufacturing procedures for towers, vessels, and heat exchangers, using charts and illustrations as knowledge related to processing costs. - Detailed explanation of the "bottom-up" estimation method for towers, vessels, and heat exchangers. - Explanation of various rough estimation methods for towers, vessels, and heat exchangers. - Explanation of key points for cost reduction in towers, vessels, and heat exchangers. *Request* - The design, manufacturing, and inspection technologies related to towers, vessels, and heat exchangers are advancing rapidly, and the actual factory equipment and manufacturing procedures of tower, vessel, and heat exchanger manufacturers, as well as the procurement and outsourcing of materials and parts, vary widely. It is recommended that readers study the latest information individually using this document as a hint. - The various data in the charts and tables of this document have been prepared with some consideration, but most are presented as reference examples for explanation. In practice, please ensure to refer to the latest specialized books and materials.

basic information
In plant engineering companies, many personnel are involved in cost-related tasks such as estimating, evaluating, and reducing costs for towers, tanks, and heat exchangers. In today's highly competitive environment, cost knowledge is no longer the exclusive domain of estimators and cost specialists; it must be a shared knowledge among engineers to some extent. In an era of global procurement, there is an increasing demand for broader perspectives on cost evaluation. However, the reality is that towers, tanks, and heat exchangers are custom-made products with specifications that vary each time, making it quite difficult for particularly young plant engineers, who have limited opportunities and experience in manufacturing these devices, to understand the composition of those costs. The author wrote this book with the hope of contributing to the improvement of cost evaluation capabilities for engineers in such times, focusing on fundamental aspects to ensure that even those with limited practical experience can understand. It would be greatly appreciated if this book serves as an educational resource related to estimation.

Company information
Since our establishment in 1982, with the support of innovative researchers, engineers, and consultants who resonate with our mission of providing "technical and management information to the industrial society," we have been dedicated to organizing management and technology seminars as well as publishing and selling technical materials. In recent years, the wave of technological innovation surrounding the industrial society has become more intense and faster. In such circumstances, we have focused our corporate activities on a "flexible" response to the information needs of the industrial society. At the corporate level, the number of companies participating in "REIT," which aims to meet 100% of their business power needs with renewable energy, is increasing rapidly. There is also a growing interest in the 17 goals of the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" related to global challenges concerning the economy, society, and the environment, and ESG investment is gaining attention. Given this situation, we are convinced that technologies centered around energy and the environment, such as those addressing global warming, will become key technologies for the future world. We will continue to focus on information related to "energy" and "environment," and we are committed to providing truly useful information for society and our descendants.
