  In all the industrial sectors viz., Oil & Energy, Chemicals & Petrochemicals, Powerplants etc., after getting done with the feasibility study, Basic Engineering is carried out. Sometimes, it is referred to as FEED (Front End Engineering Design) and after that Detailed Engineering is done to carry out Procurement and Construction activities accordingly. In the engineering project, details are provided of the unit costs of the materials and of the different construction phases. This process serves to provide a project cost estimate closer to reality. Basic Engineering The basic engineering design phase is generally associated with an economic and financial feasibility study: for one or two solutions that emerge as the most suitable in the previous phase, details of the design are given including field studies, especially of a topographical, geological, geotechnical, hydrological and hydraulic nature. The basic engineering consist of core documentation of projects, including pro
