Chemical Manufacturing – Solstice HFO-1234zd “Debottleneck” Project
Scope: Early FEL planning for construction of a new process for the manufacture of a Low Global Warming Potential product used in the production of a near “drop-in” replacement of HFC-245fa refrigerant..
Budget: $26MM
Duration: 18 Months
Highlights: Mechanical, structural, electrical, reactor setting, automation, multiple tie-ins. Construction within an operating process train.
Mitigations/Successes: Successfully developed and maintained cost reporting and engineering progress with earned value management by discipline identifying potential issues in advance. Communicated with executive management daily on progress.
