Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

REFERENCE PLANNING FOR EPC PIPELINE PROJECTS


I have been assigned to prepare a masterplan for EPC pipeline project , starting from feasibility study , engineering , formation and award of EPC contracts,procurement,constructioin/installation , testing and commisioning of pipeline.
I am in need of a sample pipeline project schedule (ie P3 schedule) detailing list of activities (civil,mechanical,piping,instrumentation,electrical etc), durations of activities ,critical activities etc.I need support till i complete this schedule on P3 espacially as i have very limited and basic knowledge only about Primavera.
I shall highly appreciate any aupport in this connection.

Sanjeev,

It is ussally, if not never, is a scheulders/planner job to develop a schedule without any interation with the entire team. You will attend a few meetings and only then the things will start openning up at you. Even your eamil clearly decribes the WBS for the project i.e starting from feasibility study , engineering , formation and award of EPC contracts......Just develop that and then when you are attending the meetings, fish for the activty deceriptions and load them in the appopriate WBS.

I can guide you about the buffers, soft and hard logic that the activties will be having for such a linear project, however i think that it is too early for that. Thanks.


Regards
Rashid
