Introduction Cost Engineering has grown to end up a crucial issue of challenging price management. In the petroleum enterprise, challenge capital expenditure (CAPEX) is huge; and frequently related to engineering layout and construction. Cost engineering is an obvious 'business side' of any engineering subject and vitally so, such that price (funding spending) ought to be 'engineered’. To powerful control engineering tasks (through turning in them inside finances & on time), it has ended up vital that price engineering principles & exercise be emphasized; that is the motive for the layout of this path. This path is designed to permit contributors to arrive at correct and modern-day price estimates thru their know-how of price analysis, price assessment, challenge making plans challenge chance assessment, and layout-to-price. The Total Cost Management (TCM) ideas are relevant to the portfolio of assets & tasks withinside the petroleum enterprise thru challenge Management ideas may be a part of this path delivery. Emphasis may also be on Cost Analysis, Cost Estimation & Control thru relevant & powerful tracking techniques. This application is geared toward engineers, economists, planners & accountants who might be in the rate of price verification, price benchmarking, and challenge or asset price management and finances tracking. The application may be introduced in the study room putting over 5 days and could appoint applicable case research and class/institution physical activities similarly to exposing attendees to numerous frameworks, guidelines, and ideal worldwide Standards as prescribed through each AACE International and ACostE of UK. Who Should Attend? Cost Engineers Project Control Engineers & Project Managers Planning Dept Engineers Cost Accountants Quantity Surveyors Construction Engineers & Supervisors Contact Management Staff Course Objectives: At the end of this course the participants will be able to: Proactively manage costs Seek opportunities for cost reduction Effectively control costs Make better use of cost budgets, plans and forecasts Understand project appraisal Control costs with projects
