Module Costing Technique
The bare module cost C
BM
is the sum of the direct and indirect costs
associated with equipment purchase and installation.
The bare module cost C
BM
can be found from the expression:
C
BM
= C
P
F
BM
= C
P
(B
1
+ B
2
F
M
F
p
)
C
P
is the purchased cost of the base condition (most common material,
usually carbon steel, operating at ambient pressure)
F
BM
is a multiplicative factor called the bare module cost factor that adjusts
for all of the previously discussed costs, as well as for specific materials of
construction (F
M
) and for actual operating pressures (F
p
).
B
1
and B
2
are factors that are dependent on equipment-type.
The superscript is used to denote base condition factor (i.e, carbon steel and
ambient pressure operation).
Pressure Factors
A pressure factor F
p,vessel
for a vessel of diameter D and
operating at pressure P (in units of bar) is based the
ASME code for pressure vessels.
Assuming a maximum allowable carbon steel stress of
944 bar, a 90% weld efficiency, a minimum allowable
vessel thickness of ", and a corrosion allowance of "
For pressures below -0.5 barg, F
p,vessel
= 1.25

Grass Roots Cost (new site)
Includes costs for site development, auxiliary
buildings, and off-sites and utilities. Such facilities
depend typically on materials of construction and/or
operating pressure, and can range from 20 to 100%
of the base module cost. A value of 50% is a good
starting point to assume.
