Hi,

I am a pressure vessel design with 2 years of previous experience in pressure vessel design in ASME VIII Div. 1

I have got an opportunity to produce F.E.E.D and conceptual design. The company takes on oil and gas project and I have to produce F.E.E.D for pressure vessel used in oil and gas industry. It is a graduate role and company will support bit of training.

Being completely new on F.E.E.D, I need advice as to jump on F.E.E.D or to stick as a design engineer ?
How different is F.E.E.D from design engineering ?

Please help, you advice is greatly appreciated.

Regards
Tim

Tim,
Just out of curiosity: can you please say what does f.e.e.d. stand for?

I had the same question recently on another forum. Apparently it stands for "Front End Engineering Design". Sounds like another buzz word phenomenon. ...here, see this http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=237659 (hmmmm, that post looks familiar)

FEED will probably be more demanding since it provides basis for the detailed engineering phase.

You need to justify almost each and every stages of your selection/s such as specification requirements, selection of codes, type of equipment selected etc from not only cost point of view but in terms of interface with other disciplines, schedule, constructibility/ availability, maintainability etc.

With an experience of 2 year its too early to work on a FEED project but it definitely will give a very good overall exposure of the project.
