TÜV Rheinland develops independent Feasibility studies and FEED packages for high hazard process plants.
We provide a full range of services to support the development of FEED packages based on a unique blend of operational experience and technical knowledge. We do not normally offer Engineering, Procurement, Construction (EPC) projects so our FEED packages are designed to meet an operator's needs rather than those of an engineering contractor.
Feasibility studies are a powerful tool when used to assess options and to help guide project decision making. The studies can take place at differing points within the design lifecycle, but are more readily employed early in the process to keep the costs of a project to a minimum. TÜV Rheinland applies a proven methodology to clarify customer requirements, identify and assess options for subsequent customer review and agreement.
During a FEED the decisions made can have a significant beneficial impact on the final cost, performance and delivery of engineering projects. TÜV Rheinland engineers apply their experience to make pragmatic judgements helping to make the optimum decisions.

TÜV Rheinland technical engineering consultants are experienced in manufacturing projects and approach projects with an operator’s perspective. TÜV Rheinland provide assistance in closing out actions any arising from studies to ensure that the benefits are realised.
Improving your project
Term services are the core of TÜV Rheinland's project services. TÜV Rheinland works with a range of customers operating high hazard plants.
TÜV Rheinland's operational experience and engineering design expertise mean that it designs and implements practical projects that deliver the desired benefits and fully reflect the operational needs of live process plants. We work across a wide range of sizes of projects from minor modifications to medium size projects.
TÜV Rheinland can pull on the full functional back up of the organisation to input specialist technical expertise when required in a highly cost effective manner. Typical examples may include: safety studies (e.g. HAZOPs), materials engineering, pressure relief specialists, water technologists, etc.
TÜV Rheinland engineers apply their experience to make pragmatic judgements.
Site solutions for real site situations
TÜV Rheinland can bring value to construction projects by providing an experienced engineering resource to manage the programme, costs and most importantly construction safety management on site.
Construction projects need to be carefully controlled. The demands of ever-tighter programmes coupled with increasing legislation and shortages of skilled resource make construction projects high-risk ventures.
We can provide advice from early feasibility stage that will manage construction safety and efficiency. Putting together health and safety plans, providing workplace training, auditing, behaviour change programmes. We can manage time and cost. We can provide our HAZards of CONstruction (HAZCON) which is a rigorous health and safety management planning process.
TÜV Rheinland have a long track record of success and can deliver the full construction management project; from the conceptual stage through to final handover. We can work with existing procedures or bring our own.
Our engineers have operational heritage, previously working as construction managers for operating companies, so understand the demands of operating environment, particularly around live plant.
