Investment Projects
1. Project Conceptualization
It is the development of a new project from its conception, identifying and quantifying the market (supply, demand, and price).
2. Market Analysis
3. Engineering Design
The sizing of the infrastructure is defined from the conceptual or basic engineering design, with the use of design software that allows sizing the different components of the infrastructure, with the simulation of the process flows to the required design conditions, pressure, temperature, flow rate, etc.
4. CAPEX
Unit cost structure for each activity in the construction process, resulting in a CAPEX for each system component. This CAPEX, depending on the study development level, can have a degree of accuracy according to the AACE (The Association for the Advancement of Cost Engineering) Class 4 or 3 standards.
5. OPEX
6. Economic Financial Analysis
With the CAPEX and OPEX defined and the projected sales volume, the economic-financial analysis of the project is developed, which includes the discounted cash flow, considering the minimum cost of capital required by the investor and the level of minimum expected profitability of the project.
7. Risk Analysis
Risk Assessment:
- Markets (supply, demand, and prices)
- Regulatory Risks
- Environmental and Social Risks
- Financial Risks
- Quality Risks
- Logistics Risks
- Construction Risks, among others.
