DOWNSTREAM
SUMMARY
The Downstream
Section of the Oil & Gas Division of Huddleston Energy plans, finances
and constructs turnkey downstream projects for the International oil &
gas industry. We arrange finance for technology and marketing
studies during the Planning Phase. We arrange finance for the Construction
Phase. We will operate, maintain and repair the plant.
CRITICAL
SUCCESS FACTOR
Our private
investors will fund projects that create healthy profits and a good return
on investment. Business Plans for ventures where the technology,
markets and economics are clearly understood, viable, and presented in
a professional manner lead to rapid approval. The Business Plan,
including techno-economics, is the key to project funding and essential
to the successful management of the engineering, procurement, construction
and delivery of the project.
HOW DO WE
DO IT?
Huddleston
Energy will negotiate a cost-with-a-success-fee contract with you for the
Planning Phase. The Planning Phase culminates in a Business Plan, which
includes a Design Basis Memorandum (DBM), for the downstream plant. We
follow the Business Plan with development funding and a turnkey contract
for the Construction Phase.
At the start
of the Project Planning Phase, our professional engineers and economists
first undertake a review of your data to see if sufficient information
is available to achieve a DBM and Business Plan. If not, a program of studies
will be planned, budgeted and executed to acquire the additional data.
Next the
Business Plan with DBM is produced. This plan is the basis for funding.
The Business Plan specifies the hydrocarbon feedstocks, all technology
and expenditures for the plant facilities, and the market for the end products.
It provides details of all commercial agreements required to purchase feedstock,
produce, transport and market the products. It quantifies the project net
cash flow economics from the capital expenditure, revenue and operating
cost calculations. It generates key economic indicators such as return
on investment, payback period and net present value. The sensitivities
of the economic indicators to changes in the Capex, market, prices, etceteras,
and a risk analysis to set project contingencies, are also parts of this
Business Plan.
When the
Business Plan and project finance is approved, we begin engineering, procurement
and design of the planned systems and equipment. Construction of the plant
facilities, commissioning, start -up and acceptance tests are completed
before turnover to you. We can arrange a production management contract
to operate the project on your behalf.
Our track
record of over 244 projects demonstrates our experience with Business Plans
for the development of projects, and the management skills needed to deliver
world-class project developments.
